Content
This course goes further inside the Microsoft windows
2000, anatomy the architecture and the components of the system, study the key
structures and algorithms. During the course, important demo applet and cases
is analyzed, and the student is about to complete some programming exercises to
understand the concepts more deeply.
The
course include: the history and development of windows, system architecture and
system mechanisms (include object management), management mechanisms, process
(thread) &job, memory management, security, I/O system, storage management,
file systems, networking and so on. The course will be associated with some
demonstrate for some key concept and some basic programming project.
