The much awaited Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) kicks off on Monday in San Francisco and the California-based tech giant has much to discuss about the four distinct operating systems such as (iOS, OS X, watchOS and tvOS).

Some of the major announcement expected from the conference are:

Siri: Apple is likely to bring computer program Siri, which works as an intelligent personal assistant and knowledge navigator to the Mac. The announcement for the same would be made in the week-long WWDC.

Apple would also start opening up Siri to all third-party apps, which means that any developer would be able to integrate their app with Siri, letting people get a lot more done on their phone with voice control, The Verge reports.

Apple Music: Apple Music, which was launched last year is also expected to be revamped and get a broad design, 9to5Mac reports.

tvOS and watchOS: Apple is expected to announce updates to tvOS and watchOS as well.

Apple Pay: Apple is working on enabling Apple Pay payments on the web, so that one wouldn't have to enter a credit card and billing information every time one wants to buy something on mobile, technology website recode reports.

iOS 10: iOS 10's first preview will be at Apple WWDC, and not too many changes are expected on the design front.
