Throughout this course, I gained valuable insights into processes, memory virtualization, threads, semaphores, and file systems. I explored the timing and prioritization of processes, the concept of memory virtualization, and the optimization of processing time through threads. I learned about the importance of semaphores in managing concurrent processes and controlling access to shared resources. Additionally, I delved into the organization and management of files and directories within a file system.
By understanding the efficiency of processes and the role of timers, I gained insights into running processes effectively. Memory virtualization allowed me to comprehend resource sharing and efficiency in operating systems. Exploring threads shed light on their optimization of processing time and handling of I/O processes. I discovered the significance of semaphores in process synchronization and their ability to control access to shared resources. Finally, understanding the organization of files and directories within a file system highlighted the practical implications of naming conventions, organization strategies, and security considerations.
Through determination and persistence, I deepened my understanding of these topics, utilizing additional resources and review. This course has equipped me with valuable insights and skills for future endeavors in the field of operating systems.
