Study Guide for Ceng 334
OS Course
This study guide is to help you organize your efforts
in learning the course subject (and therefore
get sufficient grade to pass). As I have mentioned in
the class that the lecture notes are highlights of the material covered
in the text book and aimed to introduce the basic concepts. You should study
the sections covered from the book, be able to solve the problems at the end
of each section, and test yourself by solving the past exams as found on
the course home page.
