An operating system (OS) is software that exists between computer hardware and application programs and provides various user-
and application-friendly functions and realizes efficient use of hardware resources.
In this class, you will understand the basic OS functions such as the user interface, file system, processes, and virtual memory, as well as the various technologies used to realize them. In addition, students will understand how operating systems work by actually using commands and touching programs. By understanding how the operating system works, you will be able to customize, manage, and use your computer. Understand the security functions provided by the OS.

By understanding how the operating system works, you will be able to customize, manage, and use your computer. Understand the security functions provided by the OS.
Students will be able to understand and explain the basic mechanisms of operating systems. In addition, by researching OS
functions and writing reports, students will be able to understand and explain specific specialized functions of OSes and
their relationship to security.
- Students should understand and be able to explain OS functions and the various technologies and theories used to realize them.
- Through understanding the OS, students should will be able to understand and explain the basic principles of computers, including hardware and software.
- Students should obtain the ability to better understand and explain specific specialized functions of an OS by investigating OS functions and writing reports.
- Students should be able to understand and explain the security functions provided by the OS.

Short paper (10%), midterm final exam (30%), practice assignments (40%), and final report (20%) are worth 100 points.
The goal is to be able to understand, investigate, and explain the basic concepts and design of the OS in exercises,
assignments, and reports, and students will pass this course if they achieve 60% or more.
