CSE301 Operating System

Course Description

Welcome to CSE301 Operating System! 🦕 This course is one of the core course of computer engineering as operating systems are essential for most computing systems to better utilize hardware resources and run user applications.

Time & Location

• Monday 13:30-14:45 @ College of Electronics Information and Applied Science 136

• Wednesday 13:30 -14:45 @ College of Electronics Information and Applied Science 136

Objectives

• Learn the basic concepts that underlie modern operating systems

• Understand how operating systems manage hardware and software

• Know how an existing operating system is implemented under the hood

Structure

This course  consists of three parts:

• Lecture will be given by the instructor, covering the core concepts of operating systems in depth. 

• Exercise will be released at the end of every part, which contains theoretical questions that may be related to the exams. The exercises will NOT be graded for the final evaluation.

• Presentation will be conducted at the end of every part where voluntary students will review modern operating systems and give a 15-min presentation. The presentation topic will be given in advance.

  • Presentation can be replaced with a 6-page written report with the same topic.
