: Abstract
Operating System Concepts, now in its ninth edition, continues to provide a solid theoretical foundation for understanding operating systems. The ninth edition has been thoroughly updated to include contemporary examples of how operating systems function. The text includes content to bridge the gap between concepts and actual implementations. End-of-chapter problems, exercises, review questions, and programming exercises help to further reinforce important concepts. A new Virtual Machine provides interactive exercises to help engage students with the material..This book is an excellent general survey of operating systems concepts. At 941 pages, it packs a lot into those pages apart from a good historical survey of most important issues over 64 years of operating system conceptual history since general purpose ommercial computers emerged from the shadows of world war two, it could be criticised as only dealing in depth with Linux and Windows. Older important sophisticated operating systems such as VMS are mentioned with in almost no depth.
