Computer Science (Operating Systems and System Programming): Course Description
The original 'Computer Science: Operating Systems and System Programming' lecture course, taught by John Kubiatowicz, focused on the basic fundamentals of operating systems. Though required for students earning their Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science, the course was optionally available Bachelor of Science in Computer Science students. Some course topics covered include paging, segmentation, basic networking and distributed file systems. The course taught the importance of design considerations and how to execute particular operating systems in a timely matter. In addition, the course examined engineering aspects of operating systems and current system design developments. Prior knowledge of C, Java, and data structures are helpful in understanding the OpenCourseWare content.
This OpenCourseWare includes recorded audio lectures from the Fall 2008 class and often the accompanying slide presentations. To listen to these course materials, visit the computer operating systems course page.
