Operating Systems

The "Pack N' Go" is a smartphone app designed to help travelers pack carefully and efficiently for their upcoming trips. Travelers can create their own packing list, and then save it to the program, so it is available for all other users to take advantage of. It is designed specifically for you, by people like you.

At the "Pack N' Go" headquarters the computers will use a stand-alone operating system. This is designed for fully operating systems, such as Windows 7 or Mac OSX. However, users will use embedded operating systems which are found on smartphones. Since this is a smartphone app, it makes the most sense. IOS and DROID are the most popular systems for this kind.

At the headquarters I will also make sure the employees know the difference between having the computers "Sleep" and "Hibernate". When a computer is hibernating it is almost completely turned off. When a computer is sleeping it takes any open documents and puts them into RAM. Doing this is more energy efficient, and therefore more cost efficient which is vital when starting a new business.

After thinking it through it would be more beneficial to sell the "Pack N' Go" as an Iphone App. While it's very time consuming having to wait to get the app approved before it can be sold on the market, this means that it will be safe. There wont be a great chance of having any viruses or security problems so it is well worth the wait.
