From 08456ba4716c3b658b06e0b3637c53c47e43df8d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Josip=20=C4=86avar?= Date: Fri, 2 Apr 2021 21:20:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] More realistic estimate for OS course Hi, I am currently taking this course and I am about half way into it. I already have a CS degree and I've been working as a developer for ~8 years. The course is very interesting and comprehensive. If you want to do this course properly, I think 6 hours per week for this course is bare minimum: - There are ~3 hours of lectures each week - The original course is split into 14 weeks - Each chapter has homework at the end of it - Homeworks are not very difficult, but some of them require significant amount of work - Projects require significant amount of work --- README.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 45acbd8..79ddb6b 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -246,7 +246,7 @@ Courses | Duration | Effort | Additional Text / Assignments| Prerequisites | Dis :-- | :--: | :--: | :--: | :--: | :--: [Build a Modern Computer from First Principles: From Nand to Tetris](https://www.coursera.org/learn/build-a-computer) ([alt](http://www.nand2tetris.org/)) | 6 weeks | 7-13 hours/week | - | C-like programming language | [chat](https://discord.gg/vxB2DRV) [Build a Modern Computer from First Principles: Nand to Tetris Part II ](https://www.coursera.org/learn/nand2tetris2) | 6 weeks | 12-18 hours/week | - | one of [these programming languages](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2046800/35426340-f6ce6358-026a-11e8-8bbb-4e95ac36b1d7.png), From Nand to Tetris Part I | [chat](https://discord.gg/AsUXcPu) -[Operating Systems: Three Easy Pieces](http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~remzi/Classes/537/Spring2018/) | 10-12 weeks | 6 hours/week | - | algorithms, [familiarity with C](https://hackr.io/tutorials/learn-c?sort=upvotes&type_tags%5B%5D=1) is useful | [chat](https://discord.gg/wZNgpep) +[Operating Systems: Three Easy Pieces](http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~remzi/Classes/537/Spring2018/) | 10-12 weeks | 6-10 hours/week | - | algorithms, [familiarity with C](https://hackr.io/tutorials/learn-c?sort=upvotes&type_tags%5B%5D=1) is useful | [chat](https://discord.gg/wZNgpep) [Introduction to Computer Networking](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEAYkSg4uSQ2dr0XO_Nwa5OcdEcaaELSG)| 8 weeks | 4–12 hours/week | [Assignment 1](https://github.com/PrincetonUniversity/COS461-Public/tree/master/assignments/assignment1)
