Programación para Sistemas Operativos Unix/Linux

Unix/Linux Operating Systems do constitute one of the most important families of this category of software applications. In fact, they are broadly used in both personal and corporative environments. Unix/Linux systems offer a set of features and mechanisms for security which have promoted their popularity in the current scenario of computer systems where their presence has never stop of growing. Services provided by these operating systems to users' application are offered through a well defined Application Program Interface (API) compliant to the IEEE POSIX standard. In this way, all the examples developed throughout this book can be compiled and run in every POSIX compatible
development environment.
This book also offers to readers an introduction to the more commonly used commands of the bash shell as well as the necessary programming skills to start developing in the language most commonly used to develop applications directly dealing with the operating system services: the C programming language. With this book, readers will be ready to develop their own applications using system services such as process management, synchronization and communication, scheduling, memory allocation and so forth. Finally, the reader will also find the programming elements used when building multi-threaded and parallel applications.
