Publisher's Synopsis
This theoretical and practical introduction to modern operating systems develops an almost complete operating system which is centred around a micro kernel and which supports multiple threads. The system, TUNIX, provides the reader with a real operating system with which to experiment and includes demand paging and genuine multitasking. Threads are implemented and used to achieve "concurrency" in a transparent fashion.;The book should be of use as a main text for intermediate/advanced courses in operating systems and as supplementary reading for a first course.
