When practising low-level programming, the programmer must use techniques vastly different from those employed in high-level programming languages. During this course, we cover the crucial low-level C/C++ programming techniques in Linux. Participants will learn both system functions, input/output capturing and handling of files, pipes and sockets, as well as thread-aware programming topics such as managing processes/threads, synchronization or inter-process communication. We also cover the assembly language and hybrid programming.

Duration

2 days
