Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

DFBI-422 (P610-0225) Computer Science and Web Engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2018 , semester 4, mandatory course
KI420 (P222-0007) Computer Science and Communication Systems, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2014 , semester 4, mandatory course
PIB410 (P221-0013) Applied Informatics, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2011 , semester 4, mandatory course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 120 hours (equivalent to 4 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 75 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will be familiar with the typical structure and principles of operating systems and the alternatives in development. In addition, they will also understand the maintenance strategies of the respective resources and the mechanisms of interprocess communication. They will be capable of applying the relationships studied to real-time operating systems and their scheduling procedures.
