For software development professionals and computer science students, Modern Operating Systems gives a solid conceptual overview of operating system design, including detailed case studies of Unix/Linux and Windows 2000.

What makes an operating system modern? According to author Andrew Tanenbaum, it is the awareness of high-demand computer applications--primarily in the areas of multimedia, parallel and distributed computing, and security. The development of faster and more advanced hardware has driven progress in software, including enhancements to the operating system. It is one thing to run an old operating system on current hardware, and another to effectively leverage current hardware to best serve modern software applications. If you don't believe it, install Windows 3.0 on a modern PC and try surfing the Internet or burning a CD.

Readers familiar with Tanenbaum's previous text, Operating Systems, know the author is a great proponent of simple design and hands-on experimentation. His earlier book came bundled with the source code for an operating system called Minux, a simple variant of Unix and the platform used by Linus Torvalds to develop Linux. Although this book does not come with any source code, he illustrates many of his points with code fragments (C, usually with Unix system calls).

The first half of Modern Operating Systems focuses on traditional operating systems concepts: processes, deadlocks, memory management, I/O, and file systems. There is nothing groundbreaking in these early chapters, but all topics are well covered, each including sections on current research and a set of student problems. It is enlightening to read Tanenbaum's explanations of the design decisions made by past operating systems gurus, including his view that additional research on the problem of deadlocks is impractical except for "keeping otherwise unemployed graph theorists off the streets."

It is the second half of the book that differentiates itself from older operating systems texts. Here, each chapter describes an element of what constitutes a modern operating system--awareness of multimedia applications, multiple processors, computer networks, and a high level of security. The chapter on multimedia functionality focuses on such features as handling massive files and providing video-on-demand. Included in the discussion on multiprocessor platforms are clustered computers and distributed computing. Finally, the importance of security is discussed--a lively enumeration of the scores of ways operating systems can be vulnerable to attack, from password security to computer viruses and Internet worms.

Included at the end of the book are case studies of two popular operating systems: Unix/Linux and Windows 2000. There is a bias toward the Unix/Linux approach, not surprising given the author's experience and academic bent, but this bias does not detract from Tanenbaum's analysis. Both operating systems are dissected, describing how each implements processes, file systems, memory management, and other operating system fundamentals.

Tanenbaum's mantra is simple, accessible operating system design. Given that modern operating systems have extensive features, he is forced to reconcile physical size with simplicity. Toward this end, he makes frequent references to the Frederick Brooks classic The Mythical Man-Month for wisdom on managing large, complex software development projects. He finds both Windows 2000 and Unix/Linux guilty of being too complicated--with a particular skewering of Windows 2000 and its "mammoth Win32 API." A primary culprit is the attempt to make operating systems more "user-friendly," which Tanenbaum views as an excuse for bloated code. The solution is to have smart people, the smallest possible team, and well-defined interactions between various operating systems components. Future operating system design will benefit if the advice in this book is taken to heart. --Pete Ostenson --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

有些地方翻译的太差了。 举一例: 原书: The fork call returns a value, which is zero in the child and equal to the child's process identifier or PID in the parent. 书中的翻译: ford调用返回一个值, 在子进程中该值为0,并且等于子进程的进程标识符,或等于父进...

09年发的评论,那时年轻,难免用词激烈。如今看来有必要修改一下。之前的评论放在下方,不删,也没必要删。 要说对中国IT做出巨大贡献的出版社,从前至今都应该是机械工业出版社,尤其是“经典原版书库”系列。我知道这系列中的不少中译本翻译的牵强人意,但其实机工基本上都...

作为一个CPU数字电路工程师,工作了几年之后想学习下操作系统。先读了“Operating System Concepts Ninth Edition”,感觉内容讲解不连贯之后,开始读“Modern Operating System”电子版。读了大部分之后非常喜欢,然后买了这本纸质版。结果它画蛇添足地加了一个中文版地目录,...

第一次读的是第二版,在初中的时候,当时只会c需要,在做游戏汉化的破解工作,直接撸了一遍,一个初中生都能读的懂,我想很少有教材能讲的如此的通俗,与之相对书中大量的背景概述,可能并不是适合已经工作的人去读,毕竟时间少。第二次读是大学读的第三版,校招前并没有选择干...

想当年我读这本书之前,在计算机和操作系统方面还是一个小白,甚至连一个操作系统包含哪些部分都搞不太清楚,于是就想找一本操作系统方面的书来学习一下。 因为当时已经读过本书作者Andrew S. Tanenbaum的另外一本经典书籍《计算机网络》,而且觉得那本书的难度我还可以接受,...
