• Memory management: Deals with allocation and de - allocation of memory resources within a single computer system, not with linking multiple computers.
• Process management: Focuses on managing processes (programs in execution) within a single computer, such as process creation, scheduling, and termination.
• Input/Output (I/O) System Management: Manages input and output operations for devices connected to a single computer (e.g., keyboard, disk drives), not for linking multiple computers.
