Operating Systems and Middleware Supporting Controlled Interaction
In this book, you will learn about all three kinds of interaction. This book describes how all these kinds of support are provided both by operating systems and by additional software layered on top of operating systems, which is known as middleware. Topics covered includes: Threads, Scheduling, Synchronization and Deadlocks, Atomic Transactions, Virtual Memory, Processes and Protection, Files and Other Persistent Storage, Networking, Messaging, RPC, and Web Services, Security.
