The course is organized in three exercises, covering compiler construction and interprocess communication. Starting with a scanner, the students consolidate their skills in handling large dynamic data structures, pointers, and doing low level IO. The second exercise focuses on the development of a recursive descendent parser and a short introduction to semantic analysis and code generation. The third exercise is an introduction to the field of interprocess communication. Within the exercise, elementary techniques and concepts are trained:
Slides and textbooks:
Attended teamwork and three lectures.
The course "System Software" covers the fundamental tasks and functionalities of modern operating systems and enables students to apply these techniques independently and systematically in teams to solve system-level development tasks. The course is divided into four main thematic areas:
Fundamentals, Process Management, and Scheduling:
File Systems and Persistence:
Memory Virtualization:
Concurrency: Processes and Threads:
In addition, the specific challenges of each topic are discussed, along with common strategies for addressing them. Practical exercises complement the lectures to facilitate the application of theoretical concepts to realistic scenarios.
