Aims of the subject
To give you an adequate knowledge about operating systems
To know
  • the notions, the planning goals, the usage categories

  • the bases of processes, scheduling and the main scheduling algorithms 
  • the bases of parallelism, competitive situations,
  • memory management, virtual memory, implementations, base algorithms, the services of file systems
To use
  • the usage of command line and graphical interfaces of operating systems
  • the knowledge of handling system directories, the base file system calls
  • the usage of process handling calls (fork, execv, kill etc.)
  • the ability to protect the critical sections of parallel processes with semafor usage
  • the usage of shared memory and base network possibilities (socket)
To be able

  • to use the C, C++ compiler (GNU, cc, gcc) and the debugging tools
