In the theory component, you will learn about processes and processor management, concurrency and synchronization, memory management schemes, file system and secondary storage management, security and protection, etc.[/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLO)” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]CLO: 1. Understand fundamental operating system abstractions such as processes, threads, files, semaphores, IPC abstractions, shared memory regions, etc.
CLO: 2. Analyze important algorithms eg. Process scheduling and memory management algorithms C3 [Investigate].
CLO: 3. Categorize the operating system’s resource management techniques, dead lock management techniques, memory management techniques.C5.
