THE DESIGN OF THE UNIX OPERATING SYSTEM

This classic book on the subject traces the popularity of the UNIX system throughout the computer industry. It describes internal algorithms and structures that form the basis of the operating system (kernel) and their relationship to the programmer interface.

The text presents the general flow of various algorithms and most important, a description of how they interact with each other. The algo- rithms are presented in a C-like pseudocode to aid the reader in under- standing the natural language description.

The book can be used as a text for an operating systems course at under- graduate/postgraduate level. System programmers can use the book as a reference to gain better understanding of how the operating system works and to compare algorithms used in the UNIX system to algo- rithms used in other operating systems.

Programmers on UNIX systems can gain a deeper understanding of how their programs interact with the system and thereby code more efficient programs.
