| Aims |
|
In the first part learning by the students the advanced Unix inter-process communications and concurrent programming using threads. The second part present a introduction in distributed operating systems. Our focus is on IP and Internet addressing, DNS mechanism and CGI designing. Third part the socket communications is presented. Last part treat the client / server methods in graphic interfaces in X-Window and Windows NT |
