A course is the basic teaching unit, it's design as a medium for a student to acquire comprehensive knowledge and skills indispensable in the given field. A course guarantor is responsible for the factual content of the course.
For each course, there is a department responsible for the course organisation. A person responsible for timetabling for a given department sets a time schedule of teaching and for each class, s/he assigns an instructor and/or an examiner.
Expected time consumption of the course is expressed by a course attribute extent of teaching. For example, extent = 2 +2 indicates two teaching hours of lectures and two teaching hours of seminar (lab) per week.
At the end of each semester, the course instructor has to evaluate the extent to which a student has acquired the expected knowledge and skills. The type of this evaluation is indicated by the attribute completion. So, a course can be completed by just an assessment ('pouze zápočet'), by a graded assessment ('klasifikovaný zápočet'), or by just an examination ('pouze zkouška') or by an assessment and examination ('zápočet a zkouška') .
The difficulty of a given course is evaluated by the amount of ECTS credits.
The course is in session (cf. teaching is going on) during a semester. Each course is offered either in the winter ('zimní') or summer ('letní') semester of an academic year. Exceptionally, a course might be offered in both semesters.
The subject matter of a course is described in various texts.
NI-OSY Operating Systems and Systems Programming Extent of teaching: 2P+1C Instructor: Zemánek P. Completion: Z,ZK Department: 18104 Credits: 5 Semester: Z Annotation:
The course covers system programming in UNIX environment. Emphasis is given on kernel development with focus on kernel architecture and kernel data structures. Key topics are: process management, memory management, file operations and architecture of modern file systems, device drivers and network programming.The course also addresses kernel development process, upgrades of existing kernels, kernel booting, debugging using dynamic instrumentation, and techniques to guarantee portability. Specifics of kernel architecture in embedded and real-time operating systems are also discussed. Theoretical and general principles are demonstrated on the LINUX kernel. Within labs, students will work on projects focused on development of LINUX kernel modules.
Lecture syllabus:
1) Operating system kernel architecture and programming tools used in the kernel development process 2) System calls and their implementation 3) Management of processes and threads in the kernel 4) Interrupts, timers and real-time management 5) Kernel synchronization mechanisms, symmetric multiprocessing 6) Address space of processes, memory management 7) File system management, virtual file system 8) Kernel debugging and portability 9) Implementation of network services in the kernel 10) Architecture layer, kernel booting 11) Virtualization (kvm) 12) Operating system kernel in embedded systems Seminar syllabus:
Within labs, students work on individual semester projects focused on development of a kernel module in LINUX.Literature:
