  abstract =     "This paper describes an operating systems (OS) class
                 that departs from more common approaches by introducing
                 experimental design explicitly as part of the course
                 material. Instead of implementing operating systems
                 components or modifying existing operating systems,
                 students conduct a series of experiments that measure
                 the performance of system services and try to infer
                 information about their implementation from the
                 results. These experiments reinforce the OS concepts
                 presented in lecture, and also develop a set of skills
                 that students need for a wide range of activities:
                 formulating and testing hypotheses, analyzing and
                 presenting data, and writing.",
