{{Book|ISBN=0131429388|ASIN=0131429388|title=Operating Systems Design and Implementation (3rd Edition)|topic=12400|author=Andrew S Tanenbaum, Albert S Woodhull|description=Most books on operating systems deal with theory while ignoring practice. While the usual principles are covered in detail, the book describes a small, but real UNIX-like operating system: MINIX. The book demonstrates how it works while illustrating the principles behind it. Operating Systems: Design and Implementation Second Edition provides the MINIX source code. The relevant selections of the MINIX code are described in detail. When it first came out, MINIX caused something of a revolution. Within weeks, it had its own newsgroup on USENET, with 40,000 people. Most wanted to make MINIX bigger and fancier. Instead, Linux was created. That has become quite popular, very large, and complicated. MINIX, on the other hand, has remained small and suitable for instruction and example. The book has been revised to include updates in MINIX, which started out as a v 7 unix clone for a floppy-disk only 8088. It is now aimed at 386, 486, and pentium machines and is based on the international posix standard instead of on v7. There are now also versions of MINIX for the Macintosh and SPARC available. Professional programmers will find this book to be a valuable resource and reference book.}}

|description=Complete description of the Oberon System. The Oberon System is the documentation of the successful attempt of two part-time programmers (being in their other job full time lecturers in computer science) to implement an operating system from the scratch. Starting from design decisions the authors dive into every detail of the implementation. The Oberon System has an unconventional user interface and needs quite some time and practice to get used to it.

This book presents the results of Project Oberon, namely an entire software environment for a modern workstation. The project was undertaken by the authors in the years 1986-89, and its primary goal was to design and implement an entire system from scratch, and to structure it in such a way that it can be described, explained, and understood as a whole. In order to become confronted with all aspects, problems, design decisions and details, the authors not only conceived but also programmed the entire system described in this book, and more.

''Modern Operating Systems, 3e'' is the recipient of the [http://taaonline.net/index.html Text and Authors Association (TAA)] '''2010 McGuffey Longevity Award.''' The McGuffey Longevity Award recognizes textbooks whose excellence has been demonstrated over time.
Although there exist numerous books explaining principles and structures of operating systems, there is a lack of descriptions of systems actually implemented and used. The book gives advice on how a system might be built, and demonstrates how one was built. Program listings therefore play a key role in this text, because they alone contain the ultimate explanations. The choice of a suitable formalism therefore assumed great importance, and the language Oberon was designed as not only an effective vehicle for implementation, but also as a publication medium for algorithms in the spirit in which Algol 60 had been created three decades ago. Because of its structure, the language Oberon is equally well suited to exhibit global, modular structures of programmed systems.
|review=}}
== Implementations ==
In spite of the small number of man-years spent on realizing the Oberon System, and in spite of its compactness letting its description fit a single book, it is not an academic toy, but rather a versatile workstation system that has found many satisfied and even enthusiastic users in academia and industry. The core system described here, consisting of storage, file, display, text, and viewer managers, of program loader and device drivers, draws its major power from a suitably chosen, flexible set of basic facilities and, most importantly, of their effective extensibility in many directions and for many applications. The extensibility is particularly enhanced by the language Oberon on the one, and by the efficiency of the basic core on the other hand. It is rooted in the application of the object-oriented paradigm which is employed wherever extensibility appears advantageous.
{{Book|ISBN=0131429388|ASIN=0131429388
In addition to the core system, this book describes in full detail the compiler for the language Oberon and a graphics system, which both may be regarded as applications. The former reveals how a compact compiler is designed to achieve both fast compilation and efficient, dense code. The latter stands as an example of extensible design based on object-oriented techniques, and it shows how a proper integration with an existing text system is possible. Another addition to the core system is a network module allowing many workstations to be interconnected. This book also shows how the Oberon System serves conveniently as the basis for a multi-server station, accommodating a file distribution, a printing, and an electronic-mail facility.

This book covers all topics related to file systems, going into considerable depth where traditional operating systems books often stop. Advanced topics are covered in detail such as journaling, attributes, indexing and query processing. Built from scratch as a modern 64 bit, journaled file system, BFS is the primary file system for the Be Operating System (BeOS), which was designed for high performance multimedia applications.
* Learn how to analyze crashes
You do not have to be a kernel architect or file system engineer to use Practical File System Design. Neither do you have to be a BeOS developer or user. Only basic knowledge of C is required. If you have ever wondered about how file systems work, how to implement one, or want to learn more about the Be File System, this book is all you will need.
* Sixth in the series, this edition was again written by Mark Russinovich, a Technical Fellow in Microsoft’s Azure Group, David Solomon, an operating systems expert and Windows internals teacher, and Alex Ionescu, Chief Architect at CrowdStrike and specializing in OS internals and security. Besides updates for changes in Windows, there are many new experiments and examples that highlight the use of both existing and new Sysinternals tools.
