This sample lecture gives an overview of Unix/Linux system programming, explains the central question of the course (How can one computer provide many services to many users and programs?), and presents the main components of the answer. The course combines theory with programming at the system call level and acts as an introduction to the fundamental structure and services of the Unix and Linux operating systems. To preview this spring 2007 distance education course, watch a segment of the lecture on video or listen to the full audio recording.
