    Objectives of the Course:
    The course aims to:
    1. Introduce the fundamental concepts of operating systems (OS).
    2. Provide an understanding of concepts and algorithms related to process management,
    memory management, input/output management and file management in an OS.
    3. Introduce the concepts and algorithm involved in uniprocessor scheduling (multiprocessor
    and real-time scheduling will be covered in advanced OS)

    Course Outcomes

    At the end of the course, the student should be able to:
    1. Explain the basic concepts of an OS and its history.
    2. Identify the components of a modern OS.
    3. Explain the basic concepts of process management such as threads, process states and
    concurrency.
    4. Explain the basic concepts of memory management including memory management
    techniques and virtual memory
    5. Explain how an operating system manages Input/output devices in terms of the
    algorithms used for buffering data and disk scheduling.
    6. Explain the concepts of file management such as file hierarchy, organization, access
    methods, sharing and secondary storage management.

    Lab:
    7. Utilize the basic Windows/Linux commands
    8. Write a simple batch programming / shell script
