Target Audience The course is geared towards senior undergraduate students in computer science (or related disciplines). Operating system is an essential theme in computer systems, as well as modern programming practice. This course will help students become conversant in the underlying techniques and major ideas.
Prerequisites This class has no official prerequisites. However, I highly recommend first taking system programing (CS230) and computer architecture. The course assumes your are familiar with basic c features such as pointer arithmetic, array, control statements and posix APIs (e.g., read, write, fsync, mmap)
