Windows Kernel Source and Curriculum Materials for Academic Teaching and Research.

The Windows® Academic Program from Microsoft® provides the materials you need to integrate Windows kernel technology into the teaching and research of operating systems.

The program includes:

 

• Windows Research Kernel (WRK): Sources to build and experiment with a fully-functional version of the Windows kernel for x86 and x64 platforms, as well as the original design documents for Windows NT.

• Curriculum Resource Kit (CRK): PowerPoint® slides presenting the details of the design and implementation of the Windows kernel, following the ACM/IEEE-CS OS Body of Knowledge, and including labs, exercises, quiz questions, and links to the relevant sources.

• ProjectOZ: An OS project environment based on the SPACE kernel-less OS project at UC Santa Barbara, allowing students to develop OS kernel projects in user-mode.

 

These materials are available at no cost, but only for non-commercial use by universities.

Iowa State University
Department of Computer Science
The Department of Computer Science at Iowa
State University is seeking outstanding candidates
to fill a tenure-track position, to commence in Au-
gust, 2008. We are especially interested in appli-
cants at the assistant professor level in Program-
ming Languages and/or Software Engineering.
Successful candidates will have demonstrated po-
tential for outstanding research and instruction in
computer science. A Ph.D. or equivalent in Com-
puter Science or a closely related field is required.
Our department currently consists of 27 full-time
tenure-track faculty members. We offer B.S., M.S.,
and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science and par-
ticipate in new B.S. degrees in Software Engineer-
ing and in Bioinformatics and Computational Bi-
ology. We also participate in interdepartmental
graduate programs in Bioinformatics and Com-
putational Biology, Human-Computer Interac-
tions, and Information Assurance. We have about
330 B.S. students, 60 M.S. students, and 110
Ph.D. students. Almost all graduate students are
supported by research or teaching assistantships.
We have strong research and educational programs
in Algorithms and Complexity, Artificial Intelli-
gence, Bioinformatics and Computational Biol-
ogy, Databases, Data Mining, Information Assur-
ance, Programming Languages, Multimedia
Systems, Operating Systems and Networks, Ro-
botics, and Software Engineering. Our depart-
ment has over $6.5 million in active research
grants. With the above interdisciplinary activities
included, we contribute to active research and
training grants totaling approximately $20 mil-
lion. A dynamic faculty, a moderate teaching load
(typically 3 courses per year with one course re-
duction for active researchers and possible further
reductions for junior faculty), a strong graduate
program, and a well-funded research program pro-
vide an excellent academic environment. In addi-
tion, cutting-edge research and education are nur-
tured through interdisciplinary interactions
facilitated by the Laurence H. Baker Center for
Bioinformatics and Biological Statistics, the Cen-
ter for Computational Intelligence, Learning and
Discovery, the Center for Integrative Animal Ge-
nomics, the Cyber Innovation Institute, the Infor-
