About this title

Synopsis:

This text provides coverage of all the basic systems concepts and shows how they evolved to their present forms. Basic code is presented for the important parts of the operating system, as well as references to design tools, keys to designing and implementing operating system data structures and software engineering rules of thumb. The approach is generallly oriented towards UNIX operating systems but in each section the author discusses how the conepts are implemented in several major operating systems. An emulator is available to allow students and insructors to run the code implementing the operating system.
