Get to know the purpose, functions, concepts and principles of functions, design and implementation of operating systems. Acquire general, fundamental knowledge applicable to operating systems in general, not just one particular operating system. Learn to understand and use existing systems and design your own specialized ones.
Students will receive the necessary knowledge in the field of system software and will be able to understand the basic concepts of modern operating systems for their more efficient use. Furthermore, students will receive basic practical knowledge for working with Windows and Linux.
