Amazon Description:
“OSTEP (“oh step”), or the “the comet book”, represents the culmination of years of teaching intro to operating systems to both undergraduates and graduates at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Computer Sciences department for nearly 25 years.
The book is organized around three concepts fundamental to OS construction: virtualization (of CPU and memory), concurrency (locks and condition variables), and persistence (disks, RAIDS, and file systems).
The material, if combined with serious project work and homeworks, will lead students to a deeper understanding and appreciation of modern OSes.
