Write a Technical Report

In-depth analysis The operating system selected by you and your instructor for in-depth study and analysis defines an environment for supporting a particular set of applications and/or users. You need to understand and describe this set and what is so special about it that makes Linux, Windows, or the other familiar operating systems unsuitable (or less suitable). Your operating system defines a number of abstractions and services discussed during the class. These include processes, interprocess communication, memory management, file systems and/or persistent storage of data, input and output, program loading and unload-ing, and multiple processor support. In your oral and written reports, you need to explain what these abstractions and services are and how they affect the programming environ-ment and the thought processes of programmers developing applications for the system. Written report Written reports should be no more than 10 pages of normal text and must be submitted in Microsoft Word or PDF format. The written material should cover the same matter as the oral presentation. Written reports must be in your own words! Occasional quoting from published manuals or other sources is acceptable, provided that appropriate citations are included.
