Note: this is one of discussion questions from the programme I am current learning. This is a very interesting topic, hence I think probably can post here to record my current thoughts.
In Brookshear’s book, the definition of an operating system is “software that controls the overall operation of a computer” (Brookshear, 2008, p.122).If we strictly follow this definition, we cannot simply agree on the “Super Net OS”. But from a different perspective, I will consider the internet itself as an operating system which provides the operations to data and services via the internet. The “Super OS” is the combination of internet and its infrastructure, protocols, web, server, client, and other technologies.
