About the Book

At the heart of any modern computer device sits the operating system and if the device is a smartphone, IoT node, data centre server or supercomputer, then this is very likely to be Linux. This textbook provides a practical introduction to the foundations of modern operating systems, with a focus on GNU/Linux and the Arm platform. It explains operating systems theory and concepts but grounds them in practical use through illustrative examples of their implementation in GNU/Linux, as well as making the connection with the Arm hardware supporting the OS functionality.

About the Author :
Prof. Wim Vanderbauwhede is Professor in Computing Science at the School of Computing Science at the University of Glasgow. He has been teaching and researching operating systems for over a decade. His research focuses on high-level programming, compilation, and architectures for Heterogeneous Manycore Systems and FPGAs, with a special interest in power-efficient computing and scientific High-Performance Computing (HPC). He is the author of the book 'High-Performance Computing Using FPGAs'. He received his Ph.D. in Electrotechnical Engineering with Specialisation in Physics from the University of Gent, Belgium in 1996. Before moving into academic research, Prof. Vanderbauwhede worked as an ASIC Design Engineer and Senior Technology R&D Engineer for Alcatel Microelectronics.

Review :
"...The authors' ambitious goal is to 'make Operating Systems fun again.' Today's learners require interactive content, gaining understanding through practical experience and intuitive analogies...My observation applies to students in traditional higher education, as well as those pursuing blended and fully online education. I am confident this innovative textbook will meet the needs of the next generation of Computer Science students...The authors do an excellent job of presenting Operating Systems concepts, with direct links to concrete examples of these concepts in Linux on the Raspberry Pi. Please don't just read this textbook - buy a Pi and try out the practical exercises as you go..." Steve Furber CBE FRS FREng ICL Professor of Computer Engineering, The University of Manchester
