Another defining moment in the evolution of operating systems
Small footprint operating systems, such as those driving the handheld devices that the baby dinosaurs are using on the cover, are just one of the cutting–edge applications you′ll find in Silberschatz, Galvin, and Gagne′s Operating System Concepts, Seventh Edition.
By staying current, remaining relevant, and adapting to emerging course needs, this market–leading text has continued to define the operating systems course. This Seventh Edition not only presents the latest and most relevant systems, it also digs deeper to uncover those fundamental concepts that have remained constant throughout the evolution of today′s operation systems. With this strong conceptual foundation in place, students can more easily understand the details related to specific systems.
