An Operating System (OS) is the all important software program that manages the hardware and software resources of a computer. The OS performs tasks, such as controlling and allocating memory, prioritizing the processing of instructions, controlling input and output devices, facilitating networking and managing files.
Operating Systems, as a subject, has remained pivotal in the study of Computers. Although evolution has changed the look and feel of operating systems, its basic postulates have remained the same.
The content-organization of the book, Operating Systems, 2nd Edition, reflects both conventional as well as distributed operating systems. The discussion of conventional operating systems is further subdivided into two parts to cater to fundamental and advanced concepts. The third part of the book contains concepts relating to distributed operating systems.
