What is Introduction to Operating System Design and Implementation: The OSP 2 Approach (Undergraduate Topics in Computer Science) about?

Organization of OSP 2 -- Putting it All Together: An Example Session with OSP 2 -- Tasks: Management of Tasks (a.k.a. Processes) -- Threads: Management and Scheduling of Threads -- Memory: Virtual Memory Management -- Devices: Scheduling of Disk Requests -- FileSys: The File System -- Ports: Interprocess Communication -- Resources: Resource Management.;Understanding the main principles and algorithms underlying a modern operating system is essential in undergraduate computer science. The complexity of this subject, however, means that mastering it requires significant practical experience. This unique book accomplishes just that: it teaches introductory subjects in OS design and implementation through hands-on engagement with OSP 2, the next generation of the highly popular OSP courseware. This book exposes students to many essential features of operating systems while at the same time isolating them from low-level, machine-dependent concerns. With its accompanying software, the book contains enough projects for up to three semesters. Even one semester's study, however, suffices to cover page-replacement strategies in virtual memory management, CPU scheduling strategies, disk seek-
