| Unit Description |
A programming environment provided by an operating system is an integrated user interface for the various tasks involved in developing programs. The concepts of operating systems, utilities and devices are illustrated via an intensive case study of the UNIX operating system. COMP480 is based on the undergraduate unit COMP280 with additional load consisting of extra questions on assignments and examinations and additional learning outcomes. Candidates for COMP480 will be expected to show a greater level of understanding of the unit material than that required for COMP280. Students who complete COMP280 are not permitted to enrol for COMP480. |
