Operating System Concepts
Author:Abraham Silberschatz, Peter B. Galvin, Greg Gagne
Edition:10th Edition
Core principles of operating systems are explored by examining how software manages hardware resources and enables efficient program execution. It covers processes, threads, memory management, file systems, and synchronization, while addressing advanced topics such as virtualization, security, and distributed systems, providing a foundation for understanding modern computing environments.
