In this blog post, we will be done with our Pintos Project #1 and this Pintos Series AlhumdullillAllah. so let's start... In the previous posts of this series, we have looked at the problem that is of busy waiting. To solve this problem I took help from code written by other people on Github,  so to learn it deeper you can get to look at this code, by Muhammad Zaheer  .  The basic modification is done in two files i.e. timer.c and thread.h;       ALARM CLOCK IMPLEMENTAIONS      ========================== Changes in timer.c:   - A global list of sleeping threads is created as: -static struct list sleep_list; Changes in thread.h:   - For keeping track of a sleeping thread when woken up, we declared: -int64_t sleep_time;   - When a thread calls timer_sleep(), it gets into the sleep list as: -struct list_elem sleep_list_elem Algorithms Used ...

Data Engineering Tools

   Data is a new oil. To channelize this data we need proper pipelines. These pipelines are mostly called ETL or data pipelines.  There are various tools out there to work out these Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) operations.  Some of the scripting tools are:  - Python - SQL and NoSQL Apache provides a wide range of products that can be used as Data Engineering tools.  Some of the amazing apache DE services comprised of; - Hadoop - Spark - Kafka - Cassandra - Hive In addition, some cool DE tools are: - Tableau - Talend - MapReduce These DE tools provide a way to manage the data pipelines in a more effective, efficient, and better way.  Almost every Data-Oriented company in the corporate sector is highly dependent upon these technologies. They are leveraging many of the above-mentioned mechanisms for promising Data Services and Architecture. That's it for today. Hope you have enjoyed this article. If you want to know more about data or software relat...

Dr. Zeeshan-ul-Hassan Usmani, the name known for Data Science, Predictify me, Eisenhower fellowship  and most importantly motivation for many of the students. He is the Author of book like  (C++) ++سی/سی ,  Bit Coin Block Chain aur Crypto Currency بٹ کوائن، بلاک چین اور کرپٹو کرنسی  and many other, you can visit them here . Today "Data Science Tales - A Tech blog by Bia Chaudhry," asked him some of the questions, as an interview and we are very glad that he gave his precious time to answer them. It was kinda "Remote Interview"... not the traditional one.. The Interview Question:  How can you describe " Dr. Zeeshan ul Hassan Usmani " ? ANSWER: I am a shameless idealist. We are all idealists at some stage of our lives but then it fades away and we live as a mediocre. I don’t want it to fade away. I remind myself almost every day that I need to make my today better than my yesterday, and the challenge is keep getting harder J . We onl...

Pintos : Series : Part3 : Project 1 : Alarm Clock

-
Image
The PintOS project has 27 test cases that we need to pass. In the first project we are just going for the five test cases related to alarm clock that are as under: alarm_multiple alarm_single alarm_simultaneous alarm_negative alarm_zero But before jumping into the code, let's first understand the basic structure of PintOS and how it runs. Consider the following diagram: Here QEMU is an emulator on which pintOS runs. Test cases are the processes that we run on the PintOS (Operating System). So we only need to modify the PintOS code, we are not allowed to make any change to the test cases code as this would be a cheating. When you open up the PintOS directory, in tests/threads/tests.c all the test cases are declared. And in the tests/threads/ directory you can observe files with the extension " .ck " and " .c ". So the " test_Name.c " files are the files in which test cases are defined, while " test_Name.ck " file...

I don't know what should be the title of this blog post, but let's call it " A survey of the final year university students ". Pretty long title, huh? Okay, let me tell you about this survey... The story behind this thing: Well, one day I thought about writing a post on Facebook to ask people about their sentiments and reviews regarding the final year of university life, then another thought knocked my head to write a full blog post on this topic. Then I disseminated a google form for this purpose. The google form was saying: "Hello, final semester people! I thought to collect reviews of 2020 graduates specifically of NUST and other IT universities. I am planning to add these to my blog post. Please take a few seconds to fill this form, thank you." So that was a brief story behind this whole thing, Now let's have a look at the most awaited questions and the corresponding responses...  Question#1:  Do you feel like a better hu...

Software Engineering Past Papers

-
Image
When we were in school we used to have surplus amount of  past papers, and we used to practice them in order to get prepared for the exam day. But now in university or college ( till bachelors ), we don't have overabundance of or even sufficient past papers. We tried to get them from our seniors or from the teachers. Teachers mostly do not provide any past paper for practicing and senior students usually don't have them, so from where we can get these papers? How can we practice? If you are the one who is in desperate need of past papers regarding Software Engineering courses then here you go..... GTUInfo provides them for free, it provides the semester wise and subject wise past exam papers.  so what are you waiting for? click this link  and grab the past papers for practicing more and more for improving your grades.

If you are bored of your career choice, and you are thinking that you have made a wrong choice. And now you don't have any other choice but to pursue this career. Then this blog post is for you... Today I watched  a few Motivational videos by Qasim Ali Shah and Sandeep Maheshwari .  The lesson I learned from those videos can be applied in the lives of Software Engineering students or any other person's. Lesson: You have got this life and this is up to you, how you shape this. Currently you might not have any passion in your life. But your live's passion could be that you have to master each and every aspect of your life. Meaning that the things, the issues, a programming problem, a bug in the code, anything that encounters you in your life, you need to tackle with that professionally. See yourself as a Master Piece. Allah has created you, and you are a Master Piece, you are no less. If Software Engineering was once your passion and now you are no more pas...
