"The tenth edition of Operating System Concepts has been revised to keep it fresh and up-to-date with contemporary examples of how operating systems function, and to improve learning and the student's experience with the material. It combines instruction on concepts with real-world applications so that students can understand the practical usage of the content. End-of-chapter practice exercises help to further reinforce important concepts. Each chapter also includes homework exercises and additional suggested readings on core topics. The text provides several example programs written in C and Java for use in several programming environments and a Linux Virtual Machine that can be run on Windows 10, Linux, or macOS"--Back cover.
