Covering all the essential components of Unix/Linux, including process management, concurrent programming, timer and time service, file systems and network programming, this textbook emphasizes programming practice in the Unix/Linux environment. Systems Programming in Unix/Linux is intended as a textbook for systems programming courses in technically-oriented Computer Science/Engineering curricula that emphasize both theory and programming practice. The book contains many detailed working example programs with complete source code. It is also suitable for self-study by advanced programmers and computer enthusiasts.
Systems programming is an indispensable part of Computer Science/Engineering education. After taking an introductory programming course, this book is meant to further knowledge by detailing how dynamic data structures are used in practice, using programming exercises and programming projects on such topics as C structures, pointers, link lists and trees.Providies students with the needed background and skills to do advanced programming through detailed development steps
Introduces parallel computing and concurrent programming, and explains the concept of threads and their advantages over processes; covers Pthreads programming in detail
Explains process concept and process management using a simple C program together with a piece of assembly code to show real processes in action
Covers the principle of hardware timers, timer interrupts and time service function in Unix/Linux in detail
Covers signals, signal processing and IPC in Unix/Linux; showing how to install signal catchers to handle program exceptions in user mode
