Operating Systems: Internals and Design Principles, now in its ninth edition, offers readers pursuing computer science, computer engineering, and electrical engineering a thorough, cohesive introduction to operating systems issues. While giving readers a thorough overview of the main architecture and workings of operating systems, author William Stallings highlights both design difficulties and basic concepts in modern systems. He talks about trade-offs in design and the practical choices that impact security, performance, and design. With the use of case studies in Linux, UNIX, Android, and Windows 10, the book demonstrates and strengthens design ideas by connecting them to actual design decisions. Offering unmatched project integration support along with thorough coverage of the newest operating system trends and advancements, such as cloud computing and the Internet of Things (IoT),
