DESCRIPTION:
By using several innovative tools, Stallings makes it possible to understand critical core concepts that can be fundamentally challenging. This approach is equally useful as a basic reference and as an up-to-date survey of the state of the art.. The new edition includes the implementation of web based animations to aid visual learners. These provide students with a solid understanding of the key mechanisms of modern operating systems and the types of design tradeoffs and decisions involved in OS design. At key points in the book, students are directed to view an animation and then are provided with assignments to alter the animation input and analyze the results. The concepts are then enhanced and supported by end-of-chapter case studies of UNIX, Linux and Windows Vista. Because they are embedded into the text as end of chapter material, students are able to apply them right at the point of discussion. For a one-semester undergraduate course in operating systems for computer science, computer engineering, and electrical engineering majors. Winner of the 2009 Textbook Excellence Award from the Text and Academic Authors Association (TAA)!&

Campegius Bronkhorst said Great book if you read it for an university course. I think this is a good book if it is the textbook for a computer science course. It reads easily and I didn't find it boring at all since the subject interests me. The text starts with simple concepts and builds up to more advanced concepts, just like a text book is supposed to do.This book is probably not an easy read for non computer science people, the pace might be too slow for people who already know lots about operating systems, and it might not go into enough details, but this is all typical for a text book on such a broad subject.
