Course Objectives The goal of this course is to give basic knowledge of operating systems to a student who intends to be a computer or software engineer. It provides a comprehensive introduction to process management, memory management, data storage systems and i/o control. Thread programming is studied in detail together with laboratory practices.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Measure the efficiency in using the resources of a computer,
  • Evaluate the convenience in using the resources of a computer,
  • Explain the mechanisms developed between different components for the purpose of overall efficient use of a computer,
  • Explain the techniques in developing systems programs,
  • Classify the programs as systems and user programs.
Course Description Operating System Structures, Process Management, Memory Management, File Systems, Discs, I/O Systems topics are covered.
