Course: Operating Systems
Type: Teaching Assistant
Time in Year: Course runs in Semester 1.
Number of Posts: 1 TA
Description:
Duties: primarily assisting with the practical exercise, and (most of the work) marking it.
The exercise concerns the Linux 2.4 kernel scheduler, running under
User Mode Linux. The TA will help me in assisting students with C
programming (most of them only know Java), with getting their heads
round the Linux kernel, and with understanding the scheduler code, as
well as in the practicalities of User Mode Linux. This will probably be
mostly via newsgroup, though it may be appropriate to hold some
tutorial sessions in person.
This year, the TA should if possible take primary responsibility for
the practical, including initial checking and set-up to cope with any
changes in DICE, which must be done by week 2 at the latest.
