Operating System Concepts - Galvin

This book is 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. We hope that practitioners will also find it useful. It provides a clear description of the concepts that underlie operating systems.Concepts are presented using intuitive descriptions. Important theoretical results are covered, but formal proofs are omitted. The bibliographical notescontain pointers to research papers in which  his book uses examples of many real-world operating systems to illustrate fundamental operating-system concepts. However, particular attention is paid to the Microsoft family of operating systems (including Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP) and various versions of UNIX (including Solaris, BSD, and Mac OS X).results were first presented and proved, as well as references to material for further reading. In place of proofs, figures and examples are used to suggest why we should expect the result in question to be true.

The fundamental concepts and algorithms covered in the book are often based on those used in existing commercial operating systems. Our aim is to present these concepts and algorithms in a general setting that is not tied to one particular operating system. We present a large number of
examples that pertain to the most popular and the most innovative operating systems, including Sun Microsystems ' Solaris; Linux; Mach; Microsoft MS-DOS, Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP; DEC VMS and TOPS-20; IBM OS/2; and Apple Mac OS X.
