Operating Systems Concepts with Java

The Second Edition of this bestseller provides a clear description of the concepts that underlie operating systems. It uses Java to illustrate many of these ideas and includes numerous examples that pertain specifically to popular operating systems such as UNIX, Solaris 2, Windows NT, Mach, the Apple Macintosh OS, IBM's OS/2 and Linux. This new edition is even more hands-on than before with several programming examples written in Java and C. New coverage includes recent advances in Windows 2000/XP, Linux, Solaris 9, and Mac OS X.
