  5. Course Theme and Goals • An operating system (OS) is • a software system that provides its users with a convenient interface • masking hardware details from users and programmers, e.g., with the OS, one needs not to develop application programs in machine instructions • Goal: • Get familiar with operating system internals • Study the design and implementation of OS kernels

  6. Topics Covered • History and overview of operating systems • Process management • Memory management • System calls • Handling of interrupts and exceptions • Low level hardware/software interface • Race condition and critical sections • Deadlock • I/O hardware and software (if time permitted)

  7. Prerequisites: • CSCE 230 (or CSCE 230H) and CSCE 230L (Computer Organization) • CSCE 310 (Data Structure and Algorithms)

  8. Grading • Class Participation 5% • Assignment 60% • Homework 20% • Projects 40% (Final project due during the 15th week.) • Midterm 20% • Final 15% (plan to be Monday before Thanksgiving, not comprehensive)
