Operating Systems : Concepts & Design,Milenkovic,Milenkovic

0.0

This book strikes a unique balance among the theoretical foundation, desigtn considerations, and implementation aspects of operating systems. The book takes a decidedly systems approach by blending the theory,algorithms, and architectural support with design and implementation considerations of contemporary operating systems. An emphasis is placed on synthesis by exploring relationships among different parts of operating systems and demonstrating how they are combined to form complete systems. KeyFeatures: This book is offered as a guide to the principles and practice of operating-system design. It attempts to bridge the entrenched gap between the theory and practice of operating-systems design by relying on a through theoretical foundation as a venture point for exploration of major design and implementation considerations. This book is intended to serve as a textbook for a variety of intermediate and advanced courses in computer science and computer engineering programs and as a reference for professionals. The book material is organized into four parts: Fundamental Concepts, Implementation, Advanced Topics, and Case Studies. The Coverage is modular in the sense that certain chapters or groups of chapters are self-sufficient. As a result, courses may be based on select subsets of chapter, in accordance with the needs of the audience,available time, and laboratory facilities.
