Inhalt / Organisation

Das Seminar beschäftigt sich mit einer Auswahl von (älteren und neuen) bahnbrechenden Veröffentlichungen, die neue Einsichten in Betriebssysteme vermitteln. In diesem Semester stehen Persistente Betriebssysteme im Mittelpunkt.

Beim ersten Treffen werden organisatorische Details geklärt und die Themen an die Teilnehmer verteilt.
