Operating Systems are an integral part of the computing landscape that have helped shape modern technology. This book is designed to be a comprehensive guide for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students. Prior knowledge of computer architecture and advanced programming is recommended.
The goal of this book is to explain the current practices of operating systems. The book covers traditional operating system topics, including concurrency, scheduling, linking and loading, real and virtual storage management, file systems, and security. Additionally, this book provides insight into issues encountered during everyday operating system design and implementation, but are not typically covered in undergraduate courses. This includes:
Deferred work, which includes deferred and asynchronous procedure calls in Windows, tasklets in Linux, and interrupt threads in Solaris.
The intricacies of thread switching in both uniprocessor and multiprocessor systems.
Modern file systems, such as ZFS and WAFL.
Distributed file systems, including CIFS and NFS version 4.
This book and its programming projects help students gain an in-depth understanding of current operating systems and their major components.
