     We belong to the NCR Spain Education Division and in the
     previous years we have been involved in teaching UNIX.

     We have developped a new Internals UNIX V.4 course for
     advanced UNIX programmers that needs full understanding
     of the UNIX construction. The course includes:

          -    Process Subsystem: Structures and algorithms.
          -    Process Subsystem: System calls.
          -    File systems on disk: Berkeley, S5, Boot File
               System.
          -    Virtual File System: Structures and algorithms.
          -    Virtual File System: System Calls.
          -    Memory Management Methods: Demand Paging &
               Swapping.
          -    Memory Mapped Files.
          -    Dynamic Shared Librairies: design and
               implementation.
          -    Interprocess communications.
          -    Devices Drivers: Standard DDI/DKI.
          -    Streams.
          -    Tuning.

     The duration of the course is eight days and we developped
     our own manuals in Spanish.

     Due to the huge interest on this course we are planing to
     expand his contents (and probably divide it in two courses).
     To make stress in several aspects where we need to obtain
     much more information that we currently have.

     So if you out there have information on the following
     subjects, please send it to us:

          * Streams based device drivers sources.
          * Streams multiplexor drivers.
          * Ram Disk File Systems.
          * TLI's examples.
          * Crash utility and Dump analisys.

     Thank you all in advance.
