Need some info on Blackberry OS

**Owari Jules** · 12-12-2012, 06:29 PM

I'll start of by saying , Idk if this is in the right section, maybe it should be in General discussion? if so a mod can move it

I'm doing a project on mobile operating systems and I was assigned to find out somethings on the black berry os 7... initially I thought that it wouldn't be very hard but........ I'm having trouble finding alot of the info needed ....

So I'm just testing my luck here to see if any of you guys can help me out.. Any information is appreciated...

I'm looking to find out how the OS handles Process Management,

I have found information on file management and memory management, Process management is giving me a bit of trouble

Thanks for the help!

Btw quick wiki definition of process management

Process management is an integral part of any modern day operating system (OS). The OS must allocate resources to processes, enable processes to share and exchange information, protect the resources of each process from other processes and enable synchronisation among processes. To meet these requirements, the OS must maintain a data structure for each process, which describes the state and resource ownership of that process, and which enables the OS to exert control over each process.

If I could I would, from what searches I did around the internet , I'm finding more info on BB 10 than os 7 and it isn't even released yet T.T

Unfortunately my lecturer specifically said I had to do OS 7

I say your lecturer professor is Not up to date. BB10 is better.
