Book for EEN521, Autumn 2004

There is only one book for this class. I do not make heavy use of the book in class or for assignments, but it is very useful to have some backup material. I always try to present things in a different way from the book, so that if there are any parts that are hard to understand, you've got two chances at getting it. I do not like text-books, but every time I have been brave enough not to order one, people got cross.

This book has recently been updated and corrected, and is better than it used to be.

"Operating Systems" (Fifth Edition or newer), by William Stallings, ISBN 0-13-147954-7, published by Prentice-Hall.
