25 Concept and implementation of processes; process states,
26 context switching, process scheduling.
28 4. Process management in Unix:
29 fork, wait, exit, exec, signals, pipes.

33 5. Process Synchronization:
34 The process model; mutual exclusion and critical regions,
35 Implementation of low-level mutual exclusion primitives.
36 Synchronization primitives; events, event queues, semaphores.
38 6. Process Communication:
39 High-level process synchronization constructs; messages.
42 Scheduling algorithms. Dead lock and starvation problems.
45 Memory management schemes
46 Virtual memory and demand-paging
49 Serial and parallel ports, interrupt handlers.
50 Interraction between interrupt handler and process.
51 Design and implementation of I/O drivers;
52 I/O routines approach, I/O task approach.

75 **************************************************************
77 1. All Assignments are INDEPENDENT WORK !! Absosulely no COPYING!!
79 2. Oral Quizz will be given during demo of your work.
85 1. Website: http://www.eecs.wsu.edu/~cs460/samples Directory:
86 Sample Lab Assignments Solutions
89 Your laptops running Linux or equivalent.
90 Linux machines in Sloan 327:
91 Network: Use ssh to access other EECS Unix machines.
92 scp to copy files from/to your Unix account.
94 ===================== DO THESE in week 1 ===============================
95 3. Development Software:
96 www.eecs.wsu.edu/~cs460/samples/BCC/ contains
98 Dev86binTGZ.bin : 16-bit development package
100 Download to your Linux / directory. Rename it as a .tgz file.
102 Run zcat FILENAME.tgz | tar xvf - to install
104 Read man pages of bcc, as86 and ld86 to see how to use them.
106 4. VMware and Demo. MTX:
108 www.eecs.wsu.edu/~cs460/samples/BCC/ also contains
110 VMware-Player.3.1.3-324285.i386 (VMware for Linux)
111 mtxCD.iso (MTX INstall CD).
113 1. Download VMware-Player and install it under your Linux by
114 sh VMware-Player-3.1.3-324285.i386
115 2. Create a VMware Virtual Machine (VM) with 8G IDE disk.
116 3. Download mtxCD.iso. Burn it into a CD or DVD.
117 4. Boot up from the CD/DVD to install MTX on either a REAL PC or a VM.
118 (Follow instructions upon booting up).
