    Operating System Laboratory

    Pin on Computing

    Operating systems are central to computing activities. An operating system is a program that acts as an intermediary between a user of a computer and the computer hardware. Two primary aims of an operating systems are to manage resources (e.g. CPU time, memory) and to control users and software. Operating system design goals are often contradictory and vary depending of user, software, and hardware criteria. The goal of this course is to provide an hands on experience of Linux operating systems. In particular, the course will cover basic Linux commands, processes and threads CPU scheduling, deadlock, memory management, and file systems. If time permits, we may briefly examine networking and distributed computing, and perhaps other topics.

  • Course Profile

    Course Objective-

    The goal of this course is to have students understand and appreciate the principles in the design and implementation of operating systems software.OS lab provides a series of experiences which can help to perceive key concepts of operating systems and to be familiar how they work. In this course we focus on open source operating systems like UBUNTU to come up with each part of operating systems.

    Outcome-

    At the end of the course, the students will be able to-

    • Explain the concepts about OS.
    • Learn basic Linux command
    • Gain their knowledge about process management, including process concept, inter-process communication, and CPU scheduling.
    • Learn memory management including page management and virtual memory.
    • Learn the design and implementation of file system.
    • Gain knowledge about software and hardware of I/O system
