OS Syllabus

This document outlines an Operating Systems course, including 5 units of study: Process Management, Process Synchronization, Memory Management, Storage Management, and Security and Protection. The course aims to help students understand basic OS concepts and structures, apply concepts to solve problems related to synchronization and memory management, and analyze algorithms for CPU scheduling, page replacement, storage management, and disk scheduling. The course materials include textbooks, reference books, e-books, and MOOCs. Upon completing the course, students will be able to meet 3 outcomes: understand basic OS concepts and functions, apply concepts to solve synchronization and memory problems, and analyze scheduling and management algorithms.
