<h1>CS262a: Advanced Topics in Computer Systems</h1>
<br>
<h1>Overview</h1>
<p>
The goal of the course is to cover a broad array of research topics in computer
systems, and to engage you in systems research. The class is based on a
discussion of important research papers and a research project.
</p>
<p>
The main work of this class is to read frequently and deeply, while working
toward a group research project of publishable quality. Each student will
be individually responsible for writing up a short summary of every paper.
Research projects are a critical aspect of the course. Your goal is to do
some quality systems research; that is, to add to our understanding of how to
build systems. Research projects must be written up in a term paper, and
will be presented in a poster in a departmental mini-conference.
Suggested project ideas will be provided by the instructors, but you are
strongly encouraged to come up with your own project ideas. Potential
projects include implementation or analysis of some piece of an OS, a DBMS, or
an Internet service; extending one of these systems with new functionality; or
measurement and analysis of existing systems with the goal of better
understanding issues in system design.
</p>
<h2>Prerequisites</h2>
<p>
Advanced undergraduates allowed with permission of instructor. Operating
Systems (cs162) and Database Systems (cs186) are required.
