What standard unit of measure?
It depends on what you are trying to measure. There are different standard units for different characteristics.
What is the converter factor of standard unit?
There are different converters for different pairs of units.
What are the different kinds of measurements?
nonstandard and standard measurements...
In math what is the formula for the commission?
There is no standard formula. Different employers use different methods.
How do you write thirty-four hundredths in standard form?
"Standard" form has different meanings in different countries. 34/100 = 0.3 + 0.04 or 3.4*10-1
Why is POSIX portable?
POSIX was designed as a standard to enhance portability. That is why it is portable if you use the POSIX standard.
What is the relationship of POSIX1 to Linux?
POSIX is a standard designed to ensure API compatibility between Unix and Unix-like operating systems operating systems. Linux implements most of the POSIX standard, but is not certified as such.
What is fullform of posix?
"posix" is a latest version of a operating system of "unix",published by ieee 1003.2 standard. Specifically, it's an acronym for Portable Operating Systems Interface. When used, it should specify which version of the specification is being referenced. E.g. POSIX.1-2008 is the latest.

Why some of popular operating system are not support for posix compliant?
Without getting into too much detail, it's largely a choice made by developers of the system whether or not providing a POSIX-compliant or at least POSIX-compatible system is worth the effort. The aim of POSIX is not to be a standard defining operating systems themselves so much as standard for a suitable environment for source compatibility between different operating systems, primarily those of a Unix-compliant or Unix-like design. I believe full POSIX compliance is a requirement of the Single Unix Specification in turn, the SUS being a standard that actually DOES define what an operating system should be (In this case, to be considered a real UNIX system. Needless to say Windows is nowhere in the neighborhood of SUS compliance.). The idea behind POSIX is to make it much easier for Unix/Unix-like software developers to write software and have it available for those who provide selections of software for any given Unix platform. Program written for POSIX OS A can be built for POSIX OS B with little or no changes to the source code of the program, usually the only changes needed are bits closer to the metal or usage of libraries not concerned with POSIX compliance. POSIX does not concern itself or define any standard for binary compatibility. This is not just a matter of scope but the fact that such an application of the standard would only be useful on OS-to-OS ports of a program being made on the same system architectute, which would make POSIX less useful for Unix systems, which are frequently deployed in mixed-architecture environments. Windows has a POSIX layer available as a download, but generally it's a limited, only halfway-compliant POSIX system. Windows itself is not designed in a way that is generally POSIX-compatible, since it's software architecture is a fundamentally very different thing from Unix. For most Windows users and developers: POSIX compliance is of very little practical use, as Windows' design still requires some very POSIX-unfriendly additions to source code to build correctly on Windows. For Windows to become a POSIX system would require Windows itself to be completely remade in ways that breaks all backwards compatibility with previous versions of Windows, something most users would not like. When open source software is ported to Windows, one generally uses MinGW or tools like cmake that provide build scripts/files for POSIX and non-POSIX systems alike.
List all system call interface?
The system call interface defines all the services of the operating system to the programs. The basis of the different variants of the UNIX operating system is different system call interface. SVID (System V interface definitions ) POSIX standard (IEEE) POSIX 1003.4 is API (Application Program Interface) for the real time systems. www.etherlook.com
What is POSIX?
POSIX stands for Portable Operating System Interface for UniX. It is an IEEE 1003.1 standard that defines the language interface between application programs and the Unix operating system. Adherence to the POSIX ensures compatibility when programs are moved/migrated from one unix computer to another.AnswerStrictly speaking, POSIX is an API specification, in conjunction with a specification of certain specific utility programs which must be present. While originally based on the UNIX Operating System, POSIX does not have to mean a UNIX system. For example, both certain versions of Windows NT and IBM's OS/360 have received POSIX certification as complying with the specification. As noted above, POSIX is about insuring compatibility of programs between systems, allowing a POSIX-compliant program to run on any POSIX-compliant Operating System.

What is long form of POSIX in Unix operating system?
POSIX stands for Portable Operating System Interface..
What os is not posix compliant?
By default, Windows. With certain add-ons, however, Windows can be made POSIX-compliant.

What is the purpose of the POSIX operating standard?
POSIX is a IEEE standart family with the puprpose of maintaining compatibility between operating systems. It defines command line shells, utility interfaces and the application programming interface. It is most commonly applied to Unix based operating systems, such as the various Linux distributions or MacOS.
