Course Description
There is no explicit syllabus for this thread. Because the OS projects are in C and because they involve significant design and code reading, we will use Tuesday afternoons to learn C and to work on design of your OS project solutions.

The first 3 weeks we will be working on the C language. Then we will follow the OS syllabus in designing and coding the assigned OS projects.

Readings and Resources
 
We will be using the material from the following course:

I will post other resources as the quarter goes on.

Lab Support


Monday afternoon in the ACC will be devoted to programming support: either OS assignments or DS assignments, as needed. Tuesday afternoon will generally be lecture support of OS project design so the topics will be dictated by the OS labs. We will also use Tuesday afternoon to give status reports on projects at identified intervals.
