- In this video, I share my experience in Advanced Operating Systems class that I took during fall 2021. Please feel free to ask me any questions and If you took that class already, feel free to share your experience.
Thanks so much for this video! Helped a lot! Keep making videos like this.
Thanks, will do!
Hi Edson, thanks for a detailed review. Would be really helpful if you can post a review of GIOS. as well in the future
Sure thing! I will definitely do it soon
Hi Edson, thanks for the review. I am taking GIOS for Summer 2022 and planning to take AOS in Fall 2022 with a lightweight subject like SDP. Do you reckon it's feasible to handle anything else with AOS. The other option would be to take AOS alone in Summer 2023 but I think AOS would be nice to take just after GIOS for consistency.
These are doable; I think taking 2 courses might be a lot depending on your context. If you have young kids and working full time, then it's sometime hard to balance 2 classes in one semester. For my situation, I don't think I will ever be able to take 2 classes in one semester because some projects would take away all of your week-ends. But If I was younger and did not have kid and a wife, I think I would take 2 classes. Some people are just natural, and are able to handle such load. Good luck with GIOS, it was a fun class and I have learned a lot from it.

Whats the most useful programming language to know before starting OMSCS?
I would say it depends on your specialization. For me, the most popular languages I have been using includes : C, C++, Java, python, JavaScript, bash script. If you plan to specialize in Machine Learning then Python would be important. If you plan to specialize in Systems, then C, C++. Java. I wish the program replaced C and C++ with Golang, but I don't see this happening. It's assumed that a student is proficient in at least 1 programing language before starting. From my experience, there are no class that teach programming language.
Hi Edson, Can you let know the grading curve, when you happened to do the course
I took this class a while back. I don't remember if they had a curve. Usually, if you are around the median, you should get a B.
Hi Edson!
Are you from Brazil?
I'm would like to find one brasilian on the course to do some questions.
I lived in the United States, but I had the opportunity to work with some classmates from Brazil. If it's a general question, I should be able to answer.
@@edsonphilippe58 Thanks, I'll do.
Did you end up taking DS? And sicc? Thank you.
I took it. Unfortunately, I have to retake it. I got a C for it and for my specialization, I must get at B. That's my last course.
Hello senior software engineer what courses can you advise someone who does not have a strong background in computer science to select
Usually computer networking is relatively easier or any course that uses python. Good luck
Thanks very much@@edsonphilippe58
Hi Edson! Did you took SDCC?
I remember they mentioned that class. It seems like something I would take but I remember I did not take it because I was consistently taking hard courses and wanted to get out of the program because i was mentally exhausted; I took an easier course. I honestly feel it's a great class, but unless I work at a big tech company that does cloud computing, I might not have a place where I could put it into practice. I ended up taking Digital Marketing instead because I wanted to venture into something easier. I would defiantly recommend this class. I took distributed systems instead of it in a later semester because at least the material would touch things that I could be asked at an interview to get a job.
Did you take any other class with AOS ?
No, I don't think I would be able to survive another class with AOS. The sacrifice would have been too much and I would not have time to spend with my kid and wife and friend... :-)
I dont think its unreasonable for an operating systems class to be taught in C/C++
I know; it's just that Golang has gotten so much love recently and it might be easier to find a golang job in my opinion than a c++ job in the USA. I have not verify the numbers but that's what my intuition is tell me.
