ACM SIGCSE Bulletin, 1986•dl.acm.orgProgramming projects in an operating systems course expose students to issues involved in
the design and implementation of operating systems. The Modula-2 language provides
features needed in such projects. This paper overviews the capabilities of Modula-2 and
describes a programming project in which students implement a process manager for an
operating system. The process manager supports concurrent processes and provides
operations for their synchronization and communication.
