Project Description for Operating System

Explore key operating system concepts by developing solutions for process scheduling, memory allocation, file compression, and more. This lesson helps you understand and implement OS features critical for technical coding interviews, preparing you to solve similar real-world and interview challenges.

We'll cover the following...

Introduction

A modern Operating System (OS) is a complex piece of software. It must manage finite, yet complex hardware resources while efficiently providing services to user software. In terms of hardware management, the OS must handle management of processing, storage and input/output resources. Another important part of the OS is user shell, which handles user interactions.

The scenario and problems we will discuss in this chapter relate to the memory and process manager modules of operating system software.

Statement

Suppose you are a developer on a famous OS engineering team. Your team is working on several features related to scheduling of processes as well as efficient allocation ...
