Operating Systems Lecture Notes (Martin C. Rinard)
This book covers the following topics: Processes and
Threads, Thread Creation, Manipulation and Synchronization, Deadlocks,
Implementing Synchronization Operations, CPU Scheduling, OS Potpourri,
Introduction to Memory Management, Introduction to Paging, Issues in
Paging and Virtual Memory, MIPS TLB Structure, Introduction to File
Systems, File System Implementation, Monitors, Segments, Disk
Scheduling, Networking, UDP and TCP.
Authored by Remzi H.
Arpaci-Dusseau and Andrea C. Arpaci-Dusseau, the book provides a full overview
of operating systems. It begins with virtualization and the basic process/needs
and scheduling then transitions into memory virtualization and management that
includes paging and segmentation. The book looks at concurrency-including locks,
condition variables, and semaphores. Other areas included are I/O devices, RAID
configurations, file system implementation, crash consistency, and distributed
systems. This is a comprehensive book ideal for anyone looking for essential
knowledge as well as advanced information on operating systems.

Mrs.
Sk Abeeda's notes describe the basic concepts of the operating
system. The material includes processes, threads, and scheduling. It
gives a thorough view of such synchronization mechanisms and
deadlocks besides memory management. File and I/O subsystems and
protection mechanisms are also discussed, providing a comprehensive
view of how operating systems work and how they manage resources. In
short, it is a paper to allow one to gain a good grasp of the core
principles of operating systems and to put them into practice.
Lecture notes from Stanford University-cover a wide
spectrum of systems concepts- including threads and processes,
concurrency, and synchronization. The course also discusses several
scheduling methods, virtual memory, I/O, disk management and file
systems, network file systems, and security. Emphasis is placed both
on fundamental theories and leading-edge topics in operating
systems. This can be really useful when one wants to gain a good
grasp of the principles of classical and modern operating systems.
Marvin
Solomon's study notes outline the main topics of an operating system, which
include discussion on Java-related matters, processes, synchronization, and
memory management. Added to this is information about disk management, file
systems, and protection and security. This is a small brief report with
references in seeking knowledge for the essence of how an operating system
should be managed and work.
Andrew H. Fagg's
study note is an introduction to operating system internals. Aspects included
are OS fundamentals, C programming, bit-wise operators, file systems, and file
descriptors. The paper also tends toward the topic of processes, threads, and
synchronization with all-important aspects about OS functionality and
implementation from a practical viewpoint. This paper attempts to provide a
basic understanding of operating systems and their components.
The notes by Hugh Murrell provide a starting point in UNIX and operating
system theory. Key topics include: UNIX file systems, networking, and process
synchronisation. Inter-process communication under UNIX; including deadlock
scenarios and concepts of virtual memory and paging are also covered. A good
resource to explain both UNIX-specific features, as well as general operating
system principles.
