I have taught computer science courses in UCLA and The University of Texas at Austin. During my stay in Austin from 2001 to 2003, I developed and taught three new Computer Science courses for the Department of Computer Sciences. These courses have been very popular with Computer Science and Electrical & Computer Engineering students, also with many requests for lecture notes from professors and students in other schools (some from other countries).

Here is a sample of courses I have taught.

Linux Kernel Programming

This is an upper-undergrad/grad course for CS majors, designed for students who have taken introductory Operating Systems but want real system experiences in working an Operating Systems kernel. (Detail course description)

Why do I want to teach Linux Kernel Programming?

My research involves lots of system programming in the kernel level (by and large true for systems work in networking). Kernel programming usually requires a slightly different "mind set" and not every one can do it well. I have observed that many "research prototypes" made questionable programming choices when it comes to kernel-level code, and I have also observed that many avoid experimental/implementation approaches because of the kernel programming learning curve. This motivates me to offer a course to change that. With a series of well-planned lessons, one can master it as a great research tool.
