A. Introduction: This course is offered by Dept. of Information
Technology as a department core subject. The course provides a
comprehensive understanding of Operating System principles,
techniques and approaches used for designing the software. The
focus of the course is to make the students understand how various
components of operating system interact and provides services for
execution of application software. Student will be apprised of
process management, deadlock, concurrency control, memory
management, file management and I/O management in detail,
which will be beneficial for software development.

[PO.1]. Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of
mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and an
engineering specialization to the solution of complex
engineering problems.
[PO.2]. Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, research literature, and
analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated
conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural
sciences, and engineering sciences.
[PO.3]. Design/development of solutions: Design solutions for
complex engineering problems and design system components
or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate
consideration for public health and safety, and the cultural,
societal, and environmental considerations.
[PO.4]. Conduct investigations of complex problems: Use
research-based knowledge and research methods including
design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and
synthesis of the information to provide valid conclusions.
