multiuser operating systems allows the multiple users to access the resources of a single systems at a time or at different time. allows many users to take advantage of the computer's resources simultaneously. some permit 100's to 1000 users to take advantage of the computer's resources simultaneously.

they are successful because of the powerful, efficient, stable and secure operating systems like LINUX. it has a capability of providing each user the same data ensuring total privacy from each user even while accessed by 100's of users simultaneously.

What system is the father of almost all modern multiuser systems?

There is no correct answer without qualifying which multiuser systems are being discussed. All modern operating systems have inherited traits and abilities from other older multiuser systems. There are multiple multiuser operating systems currently in use. IBM has their mainframe system (Z/os) as well as IBM i, both multiuser systems are unique from each other and from other systems. IBM also has AIX, a descendant of unix. Current unix systems go back to the original proprietary AT&T unix implementation in the 1970's and 1960's. Unix itself was modeled after a multiuser system called Multics. Linux was modeled after unix but written independently of it. Microsoft Windows NT was designed by Dave Cutler who brought his experience in developing OpenVMS with him. All other Microsoft Window implementations follow from that.

How would you describe a multiuser database?

A multiuser database may exist on a single machine, such as a mainframe or other powerful computer, or it may be distributed and exist on multiple computers. Multiuser databases are accessible from multiple computers simultaneously.
