Batch Operating system groups jobs that perform similar type of functions. These groups are treated as a batch and are executed at the same time. A computer system with this type of operating system carries out the following activities related to batch processing:
A job is defined as a single unit which is made up of a predefined sequence of commands, data, and programs.
These jobs are kept in a memory executing them without manual information.
Processing is done in the order in which they are submitted, i.e., first come first serve.
The operating system releases memory of a job as soon as it is executed successfully.
An executed job is kept in an output spool for further printing or processing.
