{"product_id":"operating-systems-in-depth-isbn-9780471687238","title":"Operating Systems In Depth","description":"This book is designed for a one-semester operating-systems course for advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students. Prerequisites for the course generally include an introductory course on computer architecture and an advanced programming course.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cp\u003eThe goal of this book is to bring together and explain current practice in operating systems. This includes much of what is traditionally covered in operating-system textbooks: concurrency, scheduling, linking and loading, storage management (both real and virtual), file systems, and security. However, the book also covers issues that come up every day in operating-systems design and implementation but are not often taught in undergraduate courses. For example, the text includes:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDeferred work, which includes deferred and asynchronous procedure calls in Windows, tasklets in Linux, and interrupt threads in Solaris.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe intricacies of thread switching, on both uniprocessor and multiprocessor systems.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eModern file systems, such as ZFS and WAFL.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDistributed file systems, including CIFS and NFS version 4.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book and its accompanying significant programming projects make students come to grips with current operating systems and their major operating-system components and to attain an intimate understanding of how they work.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cb\u003e1 Introduction.\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cp\u003e1.1 Operating Systems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2 A Brief History of Operating Systems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.3 A Simple OS.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.4 Beyond a Simple OS.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.5 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.6 Exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.7 References.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Multithreaded Programming.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1 Why Threads?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.2 Programming with Threads.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.3 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4 Exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.5 References.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 Basic Concepts.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.1 Context Switching.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.2 Input\/Output Architectures.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.3 Dynamic Storage Allocation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.4 Linking and Loading.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.5 Booting.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.6 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.7 Exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.8 References.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e4 Operating-System Design.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.1 A Simple System.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.2 Rethinking Operating-System Structure.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.3 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.4 Exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.5 References.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e5 Processor Management.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.1 Threads Implementations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.2 Interrupts.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.3 Scheduling.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.4 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.5 Exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.6 References.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e6 File Systems.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.1 The Basics of File Systems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.2 Crash Resiliency.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.3 Directories and Naming.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.4 Multiple Disks.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.5 Flash Memory.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.6 Case Studies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.7 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.8 Exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.9 References.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e7 Memory Management.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.1 Memory Management in the Early Days.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.2 Hardware Support for Virtual Memory.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.3 Operating-System Issues.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.4 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.5 Exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.6 References.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e8 Security.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8.1 Security Goals.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8.2 Security Architectures.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8.3 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8.4 Exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8.5 References.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e9 Introduction to Networking.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9.1 Network Basics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9.2 Remote Procedure Call Protocols.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9.3 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9.4 Exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9.5 References.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e10 Distributed File Systems.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10.1 The Basics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10.2 NFS Version 2.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10.3 Common Internet File System (CIFS).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10.4 DFS.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10.5 NFS Version 4.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10.6 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10.7 Exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10.8 References.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix URL Index.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGlossary.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfessor Doeppner\u003c\/strong\u003e is an associate professor of computer science at Brown University.
