Download or read book The UNIXTM System Guidebook written by Peter P. Silvester and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Well suited to medium-scale general purpose computing, the Unix time sharing operating system is deservedly popular with academic institutions, research laboratories, and commercial establishments alike. Its user com munity, until recently a brotherhood of experienced computer profes sionals, it now attracting many people concerned with computer appli cations rather than the computer systems themselves. This book is intended for that new audience, people who have never encountered the Unix system before but who do have some acquaintance with computing. While helping beginning users get started is the primary aim of this book, it is also intended to serve as a handy reference subsequently. However, it is not designed to replace the definitive Unix system docu mentation. Unix operating systems now installed in computing centers, offices, and personal computers come in three related but distinct breeds: Seventh Edition Unix, Berkeley 4.2 BSD, and System V. These differ from each other in details, even though their family resemblance is strong. This book emphasizes System V, while paying heed to its two popular cousins. It also includes a few facilities in wide use, but not included in the normal system releases. Individual details, of course, must be found in the manuals supplied with each system.

Download or read book LINUX written by Stefan Strobel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: UNIX achieved its widespread propagation, its penetration of the UNIX history university domain, and its reach into research and industry due to its early dissemination by AT&T to all interested parties at almost no cost and as source code. UNIX's present functionality emanated not just from AT&T developers but also from external developers who used the product and contributed their own further developments, which they then put at AT&T's disposal. (Consider the contributions of the University of California at Berkeley, for example.) With the rising commercialization of UNIX by AT&T (now by Novell) since 1983, such creative and cooperative further development became increasingly restricted, and UNIX source code today has become unaffordably expensive and scarcely accessible. Linux provides interested computer scientists and us"ers with a system that revives the old UNIX tradition: Linux is available for free, and everyone is heartily invited (but not obliged) to free & participatory contribute to its further development. Since Linux runs on PC systems, it has begun to penetrate the workrooms of many computer science students and computer freaks.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 723 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A System V Guide to UNIX and XENIX takes the novice reader through the features of the UNIX system step-by-step without jargon and assumptions about the reader's technical knowledge found in similar books. With its clear explanations, numerous examles, and straightforward organization, this book appeals to many non-technical people just beginning to work with UNIX, as well as engineers and programmers with prior experience. Anyone who reads this book will learn how to use the features of UNIX, and how to modify and customize those features. It is organized in such a way that it leads the reader from the UNIX basics to the more complex and powerful concepts such as shell-programming and networking. Although the book is written as introduction and reference for the UNIX user, it can very well be used as a textbook in undergraduate computer science or computer engineering courses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on interviews with the key software engineers who invented and built the powerful UNIX operating system, this book provides unique insight into the operating system that dominates the modern computing environment. Originating from a small project in a backroom at AT &T Bell Labs, UNIX has grown to be a dominant operating system in the commercial computing world -the operating system responsible for the development of the C programming language and the modern networked environment. Peter Salus is a longtime and well-recognized promoter and spokesman for UNIX and the UNIX community.

Download or read book UNIX Made Simple written by P. K. McBride and published by Routledge. This book was released on 1998 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unix is a powerful, open, multi-user and multi-tasking operating system that can be run on any computer from a high-specification PC up to a mainframe. Unix-based machines can exchange data freely and be linked into networks of unrestricted size, and any computer with suitable communications software can link into a Unix system and make full use of its facilities - which is why Unix machines form the backbone of the Internet. There are a number of versions of Unix currently in use, though fortunately, the differences between varieties are not that significant - most of the same commands are there and they mostly work in the same way. This Made Simple book is writen around Unix System V, which is probably as near to a standard as you can get. Most of what is said should be equally applicable to any Unix system. Unix was devised by programmers, for programmers, and compact power, not user-friendliness, was their prime aim. As a result, commands are terse, options legion, feedback sparse, and the potential for confusion high. In setting out to make Unix simple, the Author has focused on the key concepts, the essential commands and the main core of options, demonstrating them by worked practical examples. This book has been written with students and new business users in mind. UNIX Made Simple will show you how to manage and manipulate files, run applications, interact with others on your network, and set up your own part of the system the way you want it. There is also an introduction to programming in the Unix shell, for the more enterprising readers. The Appendices contain quick reference guides to vi and to the essential Unix commands, giving for each a brief description of its purpose, major options and related commands.
