Abstract :
A new learning approach is proposed here for the operating system education. According to the deep comprehension of Windows kernel source code, insert segments of code into key positions of Windows source code, define kernel data description forms, and record the real-time kernel activities used to reconstruct a visualization system which helps us to get a dynamic and overall understanding of the real operating system operating process.
