The main goal of the Proseminar is to learn giving a good presentation. This means we emphasize on the preparation, the composition of the slides and the structure and execution of the talk. A detailed review of the presentation will follow the talk. Dealing with questions will be exercised as well.
The topic of the Proseminar is in principle secondary, but still interesting: A systems-related aspect should be elaborated on in the context of a current operating system.
- Process Management:
CPU Virtualization, Process Concept, Process Synchronization and Communication, Scheduling, Object Model - Memory Management:
Hardware Foundation, Logical Address Spaces, Physical Addressing, Virtual Memory - Device Control:
Device Drivers, Device Management, I/O Procedures - File Management:
External Storage Organisation, File Organisation, File Systems - Security Concepts
If demanded, additional topics can be accepted. We are open for topics (e.g. special operating systems) suggested by the participants. The talk can be given in German or English language at your discretion.
