This new book provides a clear description of the concepts that underlie all operating
systems, using a real language--Java--to present many of the ideas. Rather than
concentrating on a particular operating system or hardware, the authors discuss key …

system administrators right up to speed on all the key concepts of computer operating
systems. This new edition gives them a thorough theoretical foundation that they can apply …

Operating systems are an essential part of any computer system. Similarly, a course on
operating systems is an essential part of any computer science education. This field is
undergoing rapid change, as computers are now prevalent in virtually every arena of day-to …

Abstract This paper develops Brinch Hansen's concept of a monitor as a method of
structuring an operating system. It introduces a form of synchronization, describes a possible
method of implementation in terms of semaphores and gives a suitable proof rule. Illustrative …

Graph-theoretical tools, algorithm animation, and other related visual-aids have proven very
useful in computer-science pedagogy. In this paper the use of the graphical aspects of Petri
net theory as a tool to introduce operating system concepts is given. It is shown how a …

It is pointed out that mission critical applications of the future will require a computing system
capable of high throughput as well as very high reliability. The fault tolerant parallel
processor (FTPP), a system designed specifically to satisfy these goals, is described. The …
