Course Outcomes: The student will be able to :

Demonstrate the need for OS and different types of OS
Apply suitable techniques for management of different resources
 • Use processor, memory, storage and file system commands
Realize the different concepts of OS in the platform of usage through case studies

Question Paper Pattern:

The question paper will have ten questions.
 • Each full Question consisting of 20 marks
There will be 2 full questions (with a maximum of four sub-questions) from each module.
 • Each full question will have sub questions covering all the topics under a module.
The students will have to answer 5 full questions, selecting one full question from each module.
