Operating Systems Principles by Lubomir F Bic
For one-semester, junior/senior-level courses in Introduction to Operating Systems and Principles of Operating Systems in the departments of Computer Science and Engineering and Information and Computer Science. Responding to a major paradigm shift from single-processor to distributed and parallel computer systems, this succinct text is the first of its kind to integrate those fundamental ideas, principles, and concepts in both centralized and distributed computing that remain constant even as new, more advanced systems are introduced. In addition, it presents many examples from commercial and research operating systems as a way to immediately illustrate the relevance of particular concepts.Lubomir F. Bic is Professor of Information and Computer Science at the University of California, Irvine, where he received his Ph.D. His primary research has been in parallel and distributed computing. Dr. Bic has been widely published in areas of professional interest. He served as the General Chair of the 20th International Symposium on Computer Architecture and as one of the editors of the IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering.
