UNIX Internals: The New Frontiers

Rating:
Summary: Best OS book
Review: This is the best OS book i have evern seen, really deserve 5+ starts. It gives many design issues/ideas of real exist OSes which helped me greatly. If you are really interested in OS or do some creative design job, this book is a must see. It seems next edition of this book will be unleashed next February. But what i concern is next editon may be delayed, because there are really too much new things these years, Linux 2.6 ... And I hope next edition will have some introduction to Windows Kernel. I am a UNIX fan, but you see, Windows conquer the PC's desktop, it surely has some shining points. GREAT JOB, URESH VAHALIA. :)

Summary: It worth to read twice or more!
Review: Uresh Vahalia explains complicated Unix concepts in a very comprensive way. This book is easy to read and goes deep into unix internals. Vahalia explains very well memory managment, scheduling, ipcs, LWP, file systems. If you develop under unix, this book will give you the knowledage to take adventage of the underlying system.
