Description and Table of Contents

Description

The best-selling and most respected text available, Operating System Concepts, Eighth Edition Update, provides a solid theoretical foundation for understanding operating systems. This Update Edition incorporates coverage of the most current topics in the rapidly changing field of operating systems --including Windows 7 (R) and open-source operating systems. Written as a text for an introductory course in operating systems at the junior or senior undergraduate level or at the first-year graduate level, Operating Systems Concepts presents a clear description of the concepts that underlie operating systems. As prerequisites, the authors assume that the student is familiar with basic data structures, computer organization, and a high-level language, such as C or Java.
