Operating Systems
Concurent and Distributed Software Design
Résumé
Today's software systems rely on the concepts of concurrency, modularity and distribution, both within the design of the operating system and those systems that it supports. The modern approach of this book acknowledges that distributed systems are now commonplace and a reader is more likely to be using one than a centralized time-sharing system. This avoids the focus on centralized systems, instead placing the operating system within its context and providing an overview of system components and their relationships. Java is used throughout to illustrate object oriented concepts, concurrent algorithms and distributed programming.
- Core OS concepts and functions are explained
- Covers the latest developments in OS theory and practice
- OS case studies in UNIX, LINUX, Windows 2000/NT, JVM
- Objects, concurrency and transactions are unifying themes
- Incorporates Java throughout the book
- System security is covered in a full chapter
- Integrated approach to database and distributed system design
- Further case studies on Web services, Middleware and Transaction Processing
Operating Systems is an ideal text for undergraduates on modern operating systems courses. Programmers, software engineers and systems designers will also gain new insights into the integrated nature of today's system software.
