Operating Systems--------jaico
This text demystifies the subject by using a
simple and step-by-step approach, from fundamental to advanced concepts
of operating systems. Its primary objective is to provide a reasonable
balance between theoretical concepts and practical implementation, while
projecting an insight into the generic operating systems of today. It
addresses most of the issues that need to be resolved in the design of
operating systems and describes successful approaches in the form of
abstract models and algorithms.
