Credit Units 3 Course Pre-/Co- COAL

Course Description This course will provide an introduction to operating system design and implementation. The operating system provides a well-known, convenient, and
efficient interface between user programs and the bare hardware of the computer on which they run. The operating system is responsible for allowing
resources (e.g., disks, networks, and processors) to be shared, providing common services needed by many different programs (e.g., file service, the
ability to start or stop processes, and access to the printer), and protecting individual programs from one another.

The course will start with a brief historical perspective of the evolution of operating systems over the last fifty years, and then cover the major
components of most operating systems. This discussion will cover the tradeoffs that can be made between performance and functionality during the
design and implementation of an operating system. Particular emphasis will be given to three major OS subsystems: process management (processes,
threads, CPU scheduling, synchronization, and deadlock), memory management (segmentation, paging, swapping), file systems, and operating system
support for distributed systems.
Course Intended After completing this course, STUDENTS MUST HAVE DEMONSTRATEDFAMILIARITY BY:
Learning Outcomes
(CILO) 1. Describe relationships between system services and application software
2. Compare and contrast different design considerations for major OS components.

COURSE MAPPING GRID

Directions: As a department, you are to prepare your course mapping grid that will identify soft skills emphasis in every course in the discipline. In this activity, you are to
prioritize the 21st Century skills that you wish to develop in your students as they progress in the course. The level of emphasis may be coded as 3= to a large extent; 2= to some
extent; 1to a little extent.

Total: 100%

Credit Grade = (Midterm Grade + Final Term Grade)/2

Course Policies All students who are enrolled in this course should conform to the following class policies.

1. The university rule on a 54-hour attendance applies: 20% absence is considered failed or dropped, as the case may be.
2. Students are encouraged to use resources of other libraries, etc. in the absence of sufficient references in the University Library.
3. There will be no make-up arrangements for oral presentation, hence, the professor lectures in the absence of the discussion.
4. Those that cannot come on the examination day are advised to take the test on the day prior to the schedule.

Late Policies
This course covers a lot of material and late assignments will seriously impact your ability to learn the next section of the course. Late
programming assignments will be penalized 10% per day, up to 4 days. Late homeworks will not be accepted (no exceptions). Please try to finish
your assignments and homeworks on time.

Cooperation and Cheating

Feel free to discuss homework and labs with other members of the class, or myself. However, do not look at or copy another student’s solution
to a homework or lab. I am not concerned with how you come to understand the problem and how to solve it, but once you have the background
necessary to solve it, you must provide your own solution. Exchanging homework or lab solutions is cheating and will be reported to the University,

TSU College of Computer Studies OBTL Plan in Operating Systems14 |

Page
 and you will lose credit for the course. Cheating will not be tolerated. A student found cheating on an exam will receive an automatic grade of 5.0
on the exam, and likely will fail the course as well.
