Description of the course
The operating system 1 course intended for second year computer science students is a basic course. It fulfills the vision that the student learned during the S1, S2 and S3 courses on the constituents of a computer system in general.
Before starting this course, the student learned about the structure of the machine and the architecture of the computer. These latter courses allowed the student to understand the operation of a computer on the hardware side while the current course will allow them to learn knowledge about the basic software side of a computer.
At the end of this course the student should have a clear idea of the first objective of an operating system, which is "to make the use of the machine easier and more optimal for a non-expert user"
