For courses
The general objective is to study principles, architectures, analysis and synthesis methods of applied operating systems mechanisms for local and distributed small, medium and large computer systems, with specialized and universal applications, with or without real time conditions.
The general objective is to develop LINUX operating system abilities. The laboratory applications exercise LINUX kernel recompilation in view to fulfill operation system performance requirements. Software development utilities are exercised, dedicated to recompilation process and LINUX deliveries. For project, students are involved in design and development of a LINUX kernel version, following some requirement specifications set.
Offer knowledge of software utilities structure and functions, in system programming. Establish abilities in detailed resources management
by unitary structured view through operating system components. Describe detailed resources management mechanisms.
Accommodate with open source LINUX operating system, kernel recompilation, requirement specification for operating systems
