What happens in the background when you press a key on your keyboard and an application awaits your input? In this course, Foundations of Computing: Operating Systems, you’ll learn all about the internals of an operating system. First, you’ll explore the components required in building an operating system and how they are tied together. Next, you’ll discover how processes, files, and memory are all managed. Finally, you’ll learn what an operating system needs to take into consideration when it comes to security. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of operating systems needed to fully understand how operating systems are implemented and work.
