Learning outcomes
Il corso presenta gli aspetti teorici ed implementativi di speciali classi di sistemi operativi, in particolare, i sistemi operativi distribuiti e i sistemi operativi real-time.
Tali aspetti verranno approfonditi con esercitazioni pratiche di laboratorio.
Il corso viene svolto in 44 ore tra lezioni ed esercitazioni in laboratorio, distribuite in un unico periodo didattico.
