- kenjackson 16y agoThank you. I'd learned from the original text. I never knew he had released a couple more editions of this. In fact, I may have to go buy this now!
- gruseom 16y agoSo Tanenbaum has two OS textbooks in print? How different are they? Why read one rather than the other?
- michael_dorfman 16y agoOSDI is "the MINIX book". It shows, about as much detail as possible, how a microkernel-based OS is written, down to the actual (complete) source code. Modern Operating Systems, on the other hand, is a bit higher level (but still fairly nitty-gritty) and examines two monolithic kernels (Linux/Unix and Windows) as case studies.
