Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Software Implementation Techniques is a comparison of the four operating system platforms mentioned in the title and is designed to give a software designer an introduction of how to migrate comparable program fuctionality between the different platforms. The topics covered in Software Implementation Techniques include process and thread scheduling, synchronization and concurrency primitives, file management, memory management, performance, networking facilities, and user interfaces. Software Implementation Techniques is designed to facilitate determining what is required to implement a specific operating system function. This book eliminates the need for several manuals by having everything between two covers.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 487-491) and index.
Process Management -- Synchronization and Concurrency -- Signals, exceptions and asynchronous event handling -- File systems and file management -- Memory management -- Networking Facilities -- User Interface -- Performance Evaluation and Tools -- Security concerns and strategies.
