Teaching Method

Outline:

General or Specialized : Specialized

Field of learning : Information system programming network

Required, Elective, etc. : Must complete subjects

Foundational academic disciplines : Information science, information engineering and related fields / computer system related

Relationship with Educational Objectives :This class is equivalent to "(3) Acquire deep foundation knowledge of the major subject area"

Relationship with JABEE programs :The main goals of learning / education in this class are "(A) ,(A-2)".

Course outline : We will cover the basics of UNIX system programming using the C language used to build operating systems.

Style:

Course method : Due to the timetable, this course will be held in the second half of 2 credit hours. Explanations will be given by presenting slides and writing on the board. Also, impose relevant exercises to deepen understanding.

Grade evaluation method : Average of 2 regular exams (70%), exercises (30%). As a general rule, retests will not be conducted. Materials are allowed to be brought into the regular examination.

Notice:

Precautions on the enrollment : Students must take this class (no more than one-third of the required number of class hours missed) in order to complete the 5th year course.

Course advice: Thoroughly review the basics of programming you have learned so far.
Foundational subjects: Basic Programming(2nd year), Algorithms and Data Structures(3rd), Advanced Programming(4th)

Related subjects: Control Programming(5th year)
Attendance advice : The class will proceed while explaining the basics and capabilities of the operating system. In addition, we will explain how to use each function with examples, so be proactive in programming. Attendance will be confirmed at the beginning of the class, and if you enter the room within 25 minutes of the start of the class, you will be late, and if you are late 3 times, you will be absent from class.
