Distributed Operating Systems : Concepts and Design

Rating:
Summary: Great Organisation and content
Review: Concepts and coverage is excellent for learning and the content are not too in-depth especially towards a student. Cover areas like file organisation as well as memory management which is lacking in many similar topic publications. Chapters discussed are comprehensive and relevant to learners in these fields. Diagrams are illustrative and easy to understand. A good choice especially to students that are beginners in operating systems concepts.

Summary: Great job...
Review: I am a faculty member in Computer Science at Georgia Southwestern State University, USA. I have used this book for a course on Distributed Operating Systems for graduate students. During the process of selecting a book for this course, I have looked into a number of books on this topic. Finally I selected this book due to the following reasons: 1. The content is clear start from the beginning. 2. Same (lucid) style of explanation throughout the book. 3. The material is complete in so many aspects. 4. Up to date (till the date of publication). 5. A clever student can read it and understand on his/her own.

What else I want? Great job!!

I am looking forward for the second edition of this book!
