I don't know that course you describe, but the basic features you
mentioned are pretty standard in OS's, and you could read an OS book and
implement in Ada (with some intrinsics for raw memory access etc).
Tanenbaum's old book about OS's and Minix is pretty readable, describing
a simple message passing OS written in C.  You could do something
similar in Ada.  Of course I'm sure there's newer books now as well.
