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 as a decent introduction material, the one that should give them a good grasp on the subject of operating systems.

Topics covered includes:

• key concepts, resources and sharing, resource management and spooling
• single task
• multi tasking and multi user
• processes and threads
• memory and storages, physical and virtual
• networks, services and protocols
• security, super users, firewall
