Operating Systems, 7,5 Credits
Since operating systems are the interface between software and hardware, a good understanding of how the interface works and how it should be handled by software developers is required. This affects all systems, such as traditional computers and mobile embedded systems. Basically, the operating system handles the distribution of the computer's resources and it is therefore important that a software developer has good knowledge of how the operating system works and how performance is affected by the distribution. The course also provides an introduction to virtual machines and distributed systems.
