This is a lecture notes of Operating Systems, courtesy of Mark Burgess, a full professor at the Faculty of Engineering of University College Oslo, Norway. As with other lecture notes, it's relatively short (168 pages) for a subject traditionally covered in thick volumes.
It covers most of the basic topics of operating systems, many which have only
been covered superficially. Nevertheless, readers will find this lecture notes

the subject of operating systems.
