NO OS Class and Office Hours Next Week

As it was announced in the class, due to a business trip of the instructor, the classes of the Operating Systems for the next week have been canceled. The details of the make up classes will be announced later. Also, the office hours on 10/27 (Tue) from 1400 to 1600 have been canceled.

The following are the tentative schedule for the next three weeks:

11/4: Exercise for Sec 2.3 (x2) and Lecture for Sec 2.4 (Scheduling)
11/11: Exercise for Sec 2.4 (x2) and Lecture for Ch 6 (Deadline)
11/18: Exercise for Ch 6, Midterm Exam and Lecture for Section 3.1 (+ 3.2, if possible).

"Tentative" means it is not finalized and may change later, but should be fixed by the class of 11/4.

OS Exercise 3 Posted

The problems for today's exercise have been posted at the Exercise page.

OS Next Week

Next week, we will start the class with working on the exercise problem in the lab (RQ146, or std2). The problem will correspond to what we learned in the last lecture (Section 2.2: Threads) and more specifically programming using pthrea libraries.

The lecture in the 3rd period (at LH204, or M4) will cover Section 2.3 Interprocess communication, and this is your reading assignment toward the next Wednesday.

OS Exercise 2 posted

Today's exercise problem has been posted at the Exercise page . The submission deadline is at 1210. If the deadline is approaching and you consider it is not possible to fully implement the program specifications, try to implement the part of specs, make it working, and submit it. Please note that "No submission" or "compilation error" won't earn any credit.
