6. Reading List and Bibliography

In the previous five chapters we have touched upon a variety of topics. This chapter is intended as an aid to readers interested in pursuing their study of operating systems further. Section 6.1 is a list of suggested readings. Section 6.2 is an alphabetical bibliography of all books and articles cited in this book.

In addition to the references given below, the Proceedings of the n-th ACM Symposium on Operating Systems Principles (ACM) held every other year and the Proceedings of the n-th International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems (IEEE) held every year are good places to look for recent papers on operating systems. So is the USENIX Symposium on Operating Systems Design and Implementation. Furthermore, ACM Transactions on Computer Systems and Operating Systems Review are two journals that often have relevant articles.
