goot morning everyone
i have to do a dissertation about linux defining differences between linux, windows and some realtime os like vxworks.
So i googled around and found very good informations about scheduling.
another part which would be important, would be memory management - but i cant find anything suiteable.
do you have some links for me, or other ideas which would be good to point out as "basics of this operating system"?
thanks in advance! |

/me checks me book collection
Ok basically any Operating System book by Andrew Tanenbaum is great ! Then I have a book here by H.M Deitel, P.J Deitel and D.R Choffnes named "Operating Systems" the third edition which has two sections related to everything OS on Linux and Windows XP - just what you're looking for ISBN number is 0-13-124696-8. _________________ http://www.di.fm/trance |

Here's a good starting place: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux
Scroll down the page and you find a lot of links. _________________ Everything can be done. There's just a longer delivery time for impossible projects. |

Another think that would be different between them is how user accounts and permissions work...
But as kel mentioned, you might want to be looking for some books... |
