Seminars

This is only for ID1206 not for ID1200!!

This year we will have a set of seminars that will explore different aspects of an operating system. You will need to do some coding in C, implement different experiments, run some benchmarks and be able to present your solution and findings. Work in groups of two but you should be prepared to explain the whole solution to the problems.
