Most books on operating systems are strong on theory and weak on practice.
This one aims to provide a better balance between the two.
It covers all the fundamental principles in detail, including processes, interprocess communication, semaphores, monitors, message passing, remote procedure call, scheduling algorithms, input/output, deadlocks, device drivers, memory management, paging algorithms, file system design, network file servers, atomic transactions, security and protection mechanisms.
But it also discusses one particular system—MINIX, a UNIX—compatible operating system—in detail, and even provides a complete source code listing for study.
This arrangement allows the reader to not only learn the principles, but also to see how they are applied in a real operating system.
