Operating Systems WT 2019/20 Course Retrospective
Goals of this Course Most of you were already competent Users of at least one Operating System. Many of you were also competent Developers , some had already been Experts . The goal of this course was to develop your abilities in these levels of expertise, over an array of topics, such as scheduling, concurrency, memory management, security and more. Operating Systems 2
Goals of this Course In particular, as a User , you will be able to … ● … quickly pick up any new operating system you haven’t used before, based on similarities with known systems. ● … use correct terminology then talking to experts about operating systems concepts. ● … use native tools to observe and understand application and system behavior, for example relating to performance. ● … use authentication and authorization mechanisms to correctly confjgure a system for a given access scenario. Operating Systems 3
Goals of this Course In particular, as a Developer , you will be able to… ● … use standard programming interfaces for resource allocation and access, and understand the difgerences between interfaces. ● … use synchronization primitives provided by the operating system to solve critical section problems in concurrent and parallel applications in a sensible way. ● … understand and analyze the impact that the behavior of an isolated application can have on the stability of the system. Operating Systems 4
Goals of this Course In particular, as an Expert , you will be able to… ● … compare difgerent operating systems based on varying properties. ● … understand and implement common algorithms used in operating system kernels. ● … read and understand the source code of a kernel component, with the goal of debugging, extending or otherwise modifying it.
