Course Description
The course is optional designed for Engineering Master of Computer Science in TIEI. Students will study advanced operating system topics and be exposed to recent developments in conducting systems research. The topics of the course includes: operating system design, virtual memory management, virtual machines, OS interaction with the hardware architecture, synchronization and communication, file systems, protection, and security. By the end of this course, the students could understand the inner working mechanism of the operating system and manage the hardware of the computer.
