## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good introduction to OS general concepts
*by J***O on September 9, 2011*

I was careful to buy the US edition instead of the International edition. Despite the claims that the content is exactly the same, that is simply not true. The exercises after every chapter are different. One of my classmates unknowingly got the Int'l edition and was not so lucky. Entire sections of chapters were printed non-sequentially. In other words, the book had pgs 1-15, then 32-45, then 16-31. I've come to realize that the Int'l editions are the equivalent of Chinese knockoffs electronics for books. To use an old cliche: You get what you pay for.The book itself does a good job of explaining each concept, although my professor's lectures clarified all of the confusing concepts. The writing is as interesting as can be for a topic I consider very dry. This edition is a bit outdated, using Windows XP as examples for many of the concepts. There is a more recent edition using Windows 7 called Operating Systems Concepts Essentials. Overall, if you are looking for a textbook introducing the design and inner functions of operating systems, I don't know of any better sources.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good book on the fundamentals of O/S design and theory
*by S***E on December 9, 2010*

This book was the required reading for one of my college programming courses. The authors go in to good details about the specifics of all subjects relating to operating systems in general. Some that were notable were the use and creation of semaphore objects, threading, CPU scheduling, and disk scheduling algorithms. The semaphores and threading were particularly useful in completing the classic synchronization problem 'The Dining Philosophers' which was one of the assignments for the course. The breakdown of disk organization was another very beneficial and highly interesting topic. The book covers MAC OS, Linux, Unix, Windows, as well as some information about older systems such as DOS and CP/M. The book has generalized examples and each topic includes a good deal of theory. I do not recommend this book for people without a solid foundation of C or C++. It helps to know Assembly as well, but not necessary.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must read if you are a serious Software Engineer
*by J***O on February 2, 2010*

I used this book in my OS class of my Master in Compute Science. I remember back in college, I took OS with an older version of this book. Now with professional experience, my perspective about this subject changed drastically.If you really want to take advantage of how an OS works such as the techniques of managing resources, and to apply this knowledge to your own programs; please read this book. The book is excellent if you like advanced topics such as multi-threading and multi-processing. Also, it will help you to understand how the OS interacts with the user programs and how you take advantage of advanced approaches like thread kernel model, etc.
