CMPSCI 377: Operating Systems
Discussion 4: Scheduling, Threads, and Lab 1


Notes and reminders:

  1. Starting with this week, the discussion section will be covering the two lectures from the previous week. This means we will NOT be covering the lecture from the previous day.
  2. Get started on Lab 1 ASAP if you have not already.
  3. A few labs pointers are in the slides linked below that we didn't get to in the discussion section.
