Advanced Operating Systems: Concepts, Design, and Applications by Bakkala Santha Kumar, A Hari Prasad Reddy, Ch Sabitha,Dr P L Kishan Kumar Reddy, K.Chinnaiah,Pula Sekhar

The field of operating systems has evolved significantly over the years, adapting to the ever-growing demands of modern computing environments. Advanced operating systems now play a critical role in ensuring efficient resource management, security, scalability, and real-time processing across diverse platforms, including cloud computing, distributed systems, and embedded technologies. Recognizing the need for a comprehensive resource that delves into these advanced concepts, we have compiled this multi-author volume, Advanced Operating Systems: Concepts, Design, and Applications.

This book is a collaborative effort by esteemed researchers, academicians, and professionals in the field of computer science and engineering. Each chapter is written by domain experts who bring their extensive knowledge and research experience to provide in-depth discussions on advanced topics such as kernel architecture, virtualization, real-time operating systems, security frameworks, fault tolerance, and distributed computing. The collective expertise of our contributors ensures that readers gain both theoretical insights and practical applications relevant to today’s complex computing landscapes.

The book is structured to cater to a wide range of audiences, including students, researchers, and industry practitioners. It begins with foundational aspects of advanced operating systems, progresses to contemporary design methodologies, and finally explores real-world applications and emerging trends. Through a combination of theoretical principles, case studies, and hands-on examples, we aim to bridge the gap between academic learning and industry requirements.

We are deeply grateful to all the contributors for their dedication and expertise in making this book a valuable resource. Their commitment to excellence has shaped this work into a definitive guide for understanding and implementing advanced operating system concepts. We also extend our sincere appreciation to our reviewers, editors, and publishers, whose insights and support have been instrumental in bringing this project to fruition.

It is our hope that Advanced Operating Systems: Concepts, Design, and Applications serves as a cornerstone reference for those seeking to enhance their knowledge and proficiency in the field. May this book inspire further innovation and research in the ever-evolving domain of operating systems.
