  1. Operating Systems CS502 Spring 2006 Mondays – 6PM CS502 Spring 2006

  2. Why CS502 — Operating Systems? • WPI CS requirements – “core area” for grads • Understanding of inner workings of “systems” • Exposure to diversity of operating systems • OS-related assignments you may see in real life:– • “Design and develop an operating system to do THIS” (not probable) • “Select an operating system for a product that will do THAT” (probable) • “Design and develop this application on THAT system” (likely) CS502 Spring 2006

  3. Prerequisites • Prerequisites: • C/C++ programming • Data structures • Unix/Linux user experience and access • Computer Organization • Reading assignment • Tannenbaum §§1.0– 1.4 • Especially §1.4: “Computer Hardware Review” CS502 Spring 2006
