For the Students of B.E. / B.Tech., M.E. / M.Tech. & BCA / MCA It is indeed a matter of great encouragement to write the Third Edition of this book on ';Operating Systems - A Practical Approach' which covers the syllabi of B.Tech./B.E. (CSE/IT), M.Tech./M.E. (CSE/IT), BCA/MCA of many universities of India like Delhi University, GGSIPU Delhi, UPTU Lucknow, WBUT, RGPV, MDU, etc.
This is a comprehensive textbook for B.E./B.Tech. students of Computer Science and Engineering, Information Technology, BCA and MCA. The book discusses the concepts, principles and applications of Operating Systems in an easy-to-understand language. It also incorporates several experiments to be performed in O.S. labs. Divided into four units, this book describes the history, evolution, functions, types and characteristics of Operating Systems. It provides a detailed account of memory management, virtual memory, processes, CPU scheduling and process synchronization. Moreover, it covers deadlocks, device management and secondary storage structure. Besides the book also explains information management, assembly language programming and protection. The text is supported by several practical examples and case studies.
Over the past two decades, there has been a huge amount of innovation in both the principles and practice of operating systems Over the same period, the core ideas in a modern operating system - protection, concurrency, virtualization, resource allocation, and reliable storage - have become widely applied throughout computer science. Whether you get a job at Facebook, Google, Microsoft, or any other leading-edge technology company, it is impossible to build resilient, secure, and flexible computer systems without the ability to apply operating systems concepts in a variety of settings. This book examines the both the principles and practice of modern operating systems, taking important, high-level concepts all the way down to the level of working code. Because operating systems concepts are among the most difficult in computer science, this top to bottom approach is the only way to really understand and master this important material.

Learn what happens behind the scenes of operating systems Find out how operating systems work, including Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. Operating Systems Demystified describes the features common to most of today's popular operating systems and how they handle complex tasks. Written in a step-by-step format, this practical guide begins with an overview of what operating systems are and how they are designed. The book then offers in-depth coverage of the boot process; CPU management; deadlocks; memory, disk, and file management; network operating systems; and the essentials of system security. Detailed examples and concise explanations make it easy to understand even the technical material, and end-of-chapter quizzes and a final exam help reinforce key concepts. It's a no-brainer! You'll learn about: Fundamentals of operating system design Differences between menu- and command-driven user interfaces CPU scheduling and deadlocks Management of RAM and virtual memory Device management for hard drives, CDs, DVDs, and Blu-ray drives Networking basics, including wireless LANs and virtual private networks Key concepts of computer and data security Simple enough for a beginner, but challenging enough for an advanced student, Operating Systems Demystified helps you learn the essential elements of OS design and everyday use.
A theoretical and practical introduction to modern operating systems. The system, TUNIX, provides the reader with a real operating system with which to experiment and includes demand paging and genuine multitasking. Threads are implemented and used to achieve concurrency in a transparent fashion.
This book intends to provide a proper understanding of the theoretical and practical concepts of Operating system. Detailed knowledge of the fundamentals of Operating system design and their application to design issues and development of Operating systems are provided in this book. These include basic concepts such as interprocess communication, semaphores, monitors, message passing, scheduling, device drivers, memory management, paging algorithm, deadlocks, file system design issues, security and protection mechanism.For the readers benefit, the case studies for LINUX, UNIX and Windows 2000/XP operating systems are given to illustrate the practical implementation of resource management s strategies. This helps in better understanding of the principles and their application in a real operating system.
Operating System, an integral part of any computer, is the interface between the computer users and the hardware. This comprehensive book provides the readers with the basic under-standing of the theoretical and practical aspects of operating systems. The text explains the operating systems and components of operating systems including attributes of Linux and Unix operating systems. It also discusses Android operating system and Tablet computer. The book explicates in-depth the concepts of process, threads/multithreading and scheduling and describes process synchronization, deadlocks and memory management including file access methods and directory structure. In addition, it also describes security and protection along with distributed file systems. The book is designed as a textbook for undergraduate students of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, and Information Technology as well as post-graduate students of computer applications and computer science.
