Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the key principles of operating systems and their practical administration in Windows, Linux, and macOS environments. Students will gain theoretical foundations in process management, memory management, input/output operations, file systems, and security. Emphasis is placed on the practical application of the acquired knowledge and understanding of the differences between various platforms.
The student will gain theoretical and practical knowledge of modern operating systems. They will compare Windows, Linux, and macOS, manage processes, memory, synchronization, and IPC. They will enhance command-line skills, system configuration, and acquire basic security and encryption techniques.
