The operating system ensures that applications can communicate with the internet by properly organizing data into packets. It manages network protocols, including directing data to its destination (addressing), determining the most efficient path (routing), and addressing issues that may arise during transmission (error handling).
Our operating system handles the complex task like Translation of packets into data ,so that user doesn't need to worry about handling such complex task .
OS helps in translating data from a packet and manages the data transmission between the computers/hosts in a network by scheduling mechanism. It also ensures smooth and error free communication between the hosts.
