	Assignments/tutorials submissions are handled electronically (i.e., through Brightspace) and there is no "grace period" with respect to a deadline - an assignment submitted even one minute after the deadline is late and will not be accepted by the system. Technical problems do <b>not</b> exempt you from this requirement, so if you <u>wait until the last minute</u> and then have issues with your connection, you will still receive a mark of zero. Consequently, you are advised ~~to attempt~~ to submit your work ~~<u>~~at least~~</u> one hour~~ in advance of the due date and time. Contact the TAs/instructor in case of any problems.

Any extenuating situation or academic accommodation request must be received by the instructor <u>up to 24 hours following the due time</u>, and will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Technical problems do <b>not</b> exempt you from this requirement, so if you <u>wait until the last minute</u> and then have issues with your connection, you will still receive a mark of zero. Consequently, you are advised to submit your work at least several hours in advance of the due date and time. Contact the TAs/instructor in case of any problems.

	Format errors, missing files, and other technical/non-technical upload issues will not constitute the justification for another attempt.

	The goal here is to establish a <u>conceptual model</u> to understand how operating systems work to serve applications. It is not a course like math or data structures. '''To succeed, you need to be more hands-on and focus on figuring out how to find the answers (like learning to fish) instead of the answers alone (like being given a fish)'''. ~~Memorization of answers and algorithms are~~ NOT the ~~focus of this~~ course. As you progress, you should be gradually able to imagine how various pieces of the OS fit together to function.		The goal here is to establish a <u>conceptual model</u> to understand how operating systems work to serve applications. It is not a course like math or data structures. '''To succeed, you need to be more hands-on and focus on figuring out how to find the answers (like learning to fish) instead of the answers alone (like being given a fish)'''. You can NOT expect to do well only by reading course material. You must work with a real OS, with the course material as guidelines. As you progress, you should be gradually able to imagine how various pieces of the OS fit together to function, which will be very useful in your everyday work/life with computers.

	If you are asking a lot of "why"s, you are on the right track. Use all available resources (including the course material) as references, like a dictionary, to help answer your "why"s. For example, when you are asked about some information, based on your knowledge, think: 1) which part of the OS should have this information? 2) is it supposed to be available at the point in question? 3) then how do you retrieve that information? e.g., any tool/command/funcion call?
