CSE 762 “Advanced Operating Systems Laboratory’’

This lab focuses on constructing advanced operating system components, such as internet, client-server, remote file server, distributed namespace, and user interface software. It covers web services, XML, SOAP, WSDL, UDDI, Jax-RPC, and requires project proposals, progress reports, and final demos/written documentation. Teamwork and distributed algorithms are emphasized.

Presentation Transcript

  1. CSE 762 “Advanced Operating Systems Laboratory’’ Gagan Agrawal

  2. Outline • CSE 762 / Background / New Format • Capstone criteria • Issues • Caveats: • Haven’t seen student final project demos • Haven’t seen teaching evals • I need to leave at 12:50 

  3. Background • Operating systems sequence • CSE 660 – Basics of operating systems • CSE 662 - Implementation of basic uniprocessor OS modules • CSE 760 - Concurrency / Distributed algorithms • CSE 762 - ``advanced operating system laboratory - capstone class • 25 word description: Construction of advanced operating system components: internet, client-server, remote file server, distributed namespace, user interface software.

  4. 762 • Old Format • Focus on operating system shell implementation and sockets programming • Well defined labs • Capstone requirements • Open-ended design projects • Technology Trends • Middleware replacing ``distributed operating systems’’ • Revision discussed last spring (OS course report)

  5. New Format • Web-services as the implementation vehicle • Open-ended distributed software design projects • Team work • More independent work • Define projects • Learn details of underlying technologies somewhat independently • Project details: • Distributed software with web-services, including a non-trivial client • Must have a significant distributed algorithm

  6. Detailed Outline • First 3 weeks: • Web-services, XML, SOAP, WSDL, UDDI, Jax-RPC • Weeks 4-5 • Student project proposals • Weeks 6-10 • Project progress report and discussions • Final: • Final project demo and write-up

  7. Projects • A distributed production/sales management software for a manufacturing company (distributed mutual exclusion) • A bank with a replicated database (voting protocols) • A bank with distributed database (commit protocols) • A war game with potentially malicious generals (byzantine generals) • A web-based file sharing system

  8. Capstone Criteria • No. 1: Senior level class • No. 2: Prereqs: 601 and 662 (and others by transitivity) • No. 3: Design decisions everywhere (even the project definition) • No. 4: Web-service standards are used • No. 5: Written documentation is a requirement • No. 6: Several oral presentations from each team • No. 7: All work in teams • No. 8: 30 official cap, only 14 this time

  9. Issues • Started with 8 UGs, ~20 Grads, finally, 6 UGs, 8 Grads • Need to advertise the class better to UGs • Prereq not changed while revising the class: • 662 not needed, but students need to have advanced systems programming background • 662/621/677 or permission of instructor ? • Could attract more UGs • 3 credits currently, should it be 4 credits ? • Was it too open ended (have 1 well-defined lab before the open project ?)
