Microsoft exec touts OS evolution | |

Operating systems need to evolve from performing traditional file management and I/O tasks to learning and accommodating user behaviors, a Microsoft executive said Tuesday during a keynote presentation at the O'Reilly Emerging Technology Conference here. Under the user-centric computing scenario presented by Microsoft's Rick Rashid, senior vice president of Microsoft Research, the operating system will migrate toward human-oriented performance rather than forcing users to cope with rigid file structures. Natural-language interfaces are continuing to emerge and improvements in storage technology will enable operating systems to track user behaviors to accommodate future tasks. Additionally, there will be no distinction between local and distributed computers, according to Rashid. | ||
