Course Description

This course is intended to provide a basis for the understanding of window management systems and uses this basis to illustrate the tradeoffs and solutions in implementing currently available systems.

The course begins with the presentation of a general model for window management systems, grouping various window management systems components into kernel and user components. Both the Kernel and the user components are discussed, using examples from current industry practice. It covers component selection, design, and implementation.
