Linux internals classes

These classes all involve varying amounts of lab work modifying and extending the Linux kernel.

USC - Internetworking and Distributed Systems Laboratory, CS558L.

syllabus - Summer 2004, taught by Wei Ye. A strong emphasis on networking and sensor networks - all the suggested projects are networking ones. A fair number of papers assigned as reading.

Arizona State - Principles and Practices of Operating Systems, CET 566

class web page, spring 2005, taught by Bruce R. Millard. This class focuses almost solely on the linux networking code.

Georgia Tech - CS 3210 Operating System Design

class web site, fall 2006. General coverage of the kernel, following Bovet & Cesati, has been taught yearly since 2001 or earlier.

U Texas, CS 378: Linux Kernel Programming

class web site, spring 2003. General coverage of the kernel, looks like it was only taught '02 and '03.

non-linux classes

MIT (Kaashoek) - they do a pedegogical OS, not linux. Links to similar classes at UCLA, NYU, good resource list. http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/6.828/2006/index.html OpenCourseWare available.
Berkeley - no linux internals - http://www-inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~cs162/fa06/
CMU - nothing applicable.
