Objectives
 Understand the principles of OS
 concentration on systems which are
design
• general-purpose
• multi-user
• single processor
 See
how OS design can impact program performance
 Understand concurrency, and learn of the problems (such
as race conditions) and tools used to solve them (such as
semaphores)
 Learn major features of the POSIX API

as implemented by Solaris

What is an operating system?
 Functions
of an Operating System
 Control
resource allocation
 Provide a user an environment for doing work
 Traditional
 Layers,
Design Approaches
modules, microkernel, monolithic

Functions of an OS: Resource Management
 Time
management - temporal properties
 CPU
 Space
and disk transfer scheduling
management
 main
and secondary storage allocation
 Synchronization
 IPC,
and deadlock handling
race condition, coordination
 Accounting
 resource
and status information
usage tracking
Functions of an OS: User Environment
Transforms bare hardware machine into higher
level abstractions
 Execution environment

 process
 The
 file
implementation
processor does not know about processes
manipulation
 Blocks
 interrupt
 Serial
 I/O
and sectors  file names and directories
handling
device event  button click
actions
 Delayed
block write scheduled  Save a file
What can understanding the OS do for me?
 The
machine code executed while your program is running
is determined by the C++ statements in your program, the
compiler and libraries, and the operating system
