Description
During this class we will explore the truth behind computer operating system (OS). The most fundamental topic for all developers. This class will give you a solid foundation as a developer/computer scientist.

This course is designed to give you the operating system skills you need to crack the interview questions on operating system in top notch companies. By the end of the course, you will understand Operating System Concepts extremely well and be able to start with any subject of computer science.

Why would you choose to learn Operating Systems?

The reality is that there are a lot of computer science subjects out there. It's in the hundreds. Why would you choose the operating systems subject?

The reason is starting most of the subjects of computer science will become far easier if you have a good understanding of operating systems. By learning this subject, you are not only getting started with operating system but also getting started with computer science.
