Make an appointment. Please try to make just one appointment ahead of time each week so all students are able to attend office hours. Some office hours are by appointment only; if I am not booked during these times I might not be available for drop-ins.
Welcome to the fall 2024 session of CSC 213: Operating Systems and Parallel Algorithms. In this course, we will learn what is happening a level of abstraction below your programs when you run them on a modern computer. We will learn how the OS and runtime libraries providing useful services to programs, how the OS manages scarce resources like CPU time and memory, how access to storage and network devices is controlled, and the role that hardware plays in each of these concerns.
