This sixth edition provides students with an applied introduction to the principles of operating systems while guiding them through most operating systems used today. Aimed at students who are interested in using, rather than designing, computer operating systems and networks, the text is designed to show why operating systems are needed and what they do. This book takes students through the principles of OS and illustrates them with a wealth of examples.
 
Features

  • Shows why operating systems are needed and what they do, in great detail.
  • Written at a pace and level that is appropriate for introductory-level students, including numerous illustrations to visually reinforce concepts.
  • Uses the most current versions of popular operating systems, such as WIndows XP, WIndows 2003, Linux, Macintosh OS X, and Novell.
  • New chapter on Macintosh OS X internals.
  • Less focus on mainframe operating systems to allow for more coverage on common PC operating systems.
  • Material on IBM/OS JCL from previous editions has been condensed into a new appendix. These chapters are still available online at http://aw-bc.com/davis.
  • Network operating system coverage has been revised to provide the state-of-the-art in this important area. It progresses from how the Internet infrastructure works, to client-server systems, to examples from common operating systems.
  • All new thought provoking exercises added to the end of each chapter for multiple practice opportunities
