Course Project: Operating System
Proposal
Objectives
Your company is currently
investigating the use of Linux. Your manager has asked you to research the
feasibility of using Linux in both the server and workstation environments
(from the operating system point of view). Your manager would like to see an 8-
to 10-page paper that
- compares and contrasts Linux server and Linux
workstation OS products between three separate and distinct Linux distros
(i.e., RedHat, SuSe, Ubuntu ); and
- addresses the specific issues of total cost of
ownership, training, support, performance, reliability, and application
availability.
Guidelines
The following is a list of
guidelines for your Course Project, due in Week 6.
- The Course Project is worth 150 points and is comprised
of the following deliverables.
- Week 3: Outline (35 points)
- Week 6: Paper (115 points)
- The paper shall only address business requirements and
concerns, not personal or home use of Linux.
- The paper shall address three different Linux vendors,
along with each vendor’s specific server and workstation product.
- Each comparison or contrast item should include each of
the three specific vendors—for both server and workstation products.
- The primary emphasis on grading will address comparison
and contrast items; however, you must still provide references and cite
your work throughout the paper.
- All DeVry University policies are in effect, including
the plagiarism policy.
- Use each week’s lecture, reading assignments, labs, and
discussions as guidance and supporting information for your paper.
- APA formatting is required for your paper.
- The paper shall be your individual and original work.
This is not a team project.
- The paper is intended to be a professional document.

Best Practices
The following are best practices in
preparing this paper.
- Start your research as early as possible, preferably in
Week 1.
- Use academic and professional journals, magazines,
nonbiased websites, and so forth as the foundation for your references.
Extensive use of vendors’ literature for evaluating its products will
usually result in a biased perspective.
- Create a functional outline before you begin to write
your paper. Use it as your guide while writing to maintain proper
organization and cohesion. And yes, it is okay to refine your outline as
you write your paper.
- Again, the focus is on the business environment, not
personal or home use.
