- One book worth of looking at is titled 'Operating Systems - Design And
- Implementation' by Andrew S. Tanenbaum (Prentice-Hall). It describes
- many different aspects of implementing (and designing) operating
- systems and offers source code (mostly in C, but some 200-300 lines in
- assembly) to major parts of an operating system called Minix, which is
- a Unix-like operating system running on a PC. A commercial version of
- Minix with full source code is also available from your well-prepared
- local dealer.
