 Operating System Basics and Practice: A Hands-on Approach with openEuler English | January 10, 2026 | ISBN: 981952184X | 393 pages | EPUB (True) | 21.99 MB This open access book covers operating system fundamentals, UNIX/Linux design philosophy, and openEuler practices. It introduces basic OS knowledge, openEuler usage, OS principles, Linux development, embedded OS development, network fundamentals, server system management, and openEuler's open source innovations. It delves into Linux development and application, comparing it to UNIX design. Practical cases from the openEuler platform enhance understanding and facilitate modern Linux application. For beginners, it quickly builds Linux proficiency and system management skills. For experts, it offers new insights into Linux operational logic, aiding efficient tool use and inspiring software architecture design. Suitable for computer science, automation, and electronic measurement students, it's also valuable for Linux developers and computer professionals.  Operating System : Simply in Depth by Ajit Singh English | December 30, 2023 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0CR8KTRZR | 286 pages | EPUB | 14 Mb Welcome to the comprehensive world of Operating Systems! This book is tailored for graduate and postgraduate students seeking a profound understanding of the intricate mechanisms that govern the heart of modern computing systems.  Operating Modern Data Systems: Architectural Control, Reliability, and Evolution in Production Distributed Systems English | December 28, 2025 | ASIN: B0GCXF2M9D | 462 pages | EPUB (True) | 6.36 MB Operational architecture for long-lived data systems. Modern data systems rarely fail because of broken code. They fail because architectural intent erodes under time, pressure, and continuous change. Operating Modern Data Systems is a deep, architecture-first examination of what happens after systems leave the whiteboard and enter production. It reframes operations as an architectural discipline-where guarantees are defended or lost, authority is exercised under stress, and reliability is proven over years rather than releases. This book is not about tools, dashboards, or incident checklists. It focuses instead on the structural forces that shape real production systems: failure as a normal condition, time and ordering ambiguity, load and pressure propagation, migration risk, cost as a signal, security as operational trust, and the human and organizational realities embedded in every system. Written for experienced practitioners, the book develops architectural judgment rather than prescribing solutions. It examines how systems drift, how meaning degrades silently, and how design decisions are continuously rewritten through operational action. What This Book Covers Why correct designs still fail after deployment How operational shortcuts quietly become architectural commitments Reliability as preserved meaning-not just uptime Failure as a continuous condition, not an exceptional event Time, ordering, and partial truth in distributed systems Recovery, migration, and change as extended failure modes Load, pressure, backpressure, and containment Observability as the ability to explain behavior Cost, security, and governance as architectural signals Human judgment and organizational structure as part of the system How systems age-and what allows architecture to hold over time What Makes This Book Different Operations treated as architecture Production behavior, failure, and recovery are examined as structural concerns, not operational afterthoughts. Decision- and consequence-focused The book emphasizes how choices accumulate, constrain future change, and shape long-term reliability. Tool-agnostic and durable Concepts are designed to remain relevant as platforms, frameworks, and AI systems evolve. Reliability redefined Availability alone is not success. Reliability is the preservation of meaning, guarantees, and trust under stress. Written for the AI era without hype The book situates modern data and AI-driven systems within the same architectural forces, showing where automation amplifies risk and responsibility. Who This Book Is For This book is written for: Software engineers operating backend and platform systems Data engineers responsible for production pipelines and storage Senior, staff, and principal engineers shaping system architecture Architects and technical leaders accountable for long-term reliability Practitioners working with distributed data systems and AI platforms It assumes familiarity with production systems and distributed environments. Who This Book Is Not For Beginners seeking introductions or tutorials Readers looking for step-by-step guides or tool-specific instructions Those expecting quick fixes, patterns, or checklists Order now to develop architectural judgment for systems that must endure pressure, change, and time.  Opening for White according to Kramnik 1.Nf3, Volume 4 (Repertoire Books) By Alexander Khalifman 2002 | 240 Pages | ISBN: 954878226X | PDF | 5 MB The fourth book of the series provides a weapon against the Slav, Semi-Slav, Queen's Gambit Accepted and other less popular systems.  Onsets: Suprasegmental and Prosodic Behaviour By Nina Topintzi 2010 | 282 Pages | ISBN: 0521493358 | PDF | 3 MB The concept of the 'onset', i.e. the consonant(s) before the vowel of a syllable, is critical within phonology. While phonologists have examined the segmental behaviour of onsets, their prosodic status has instead been largely overlooked. In fact, most previous accounts have stipulated that onsets are insignificant when it comes to the 'heaviness' of syllables. In this book Nina Topintzi presents a new theory of onsets, arguing for their fundamental role in the structure of language both in the underlying and surface representation, unlike previous assumptions. To capture the weight behaviour of onsets, a novel account is proposed that relates their interaction with voicing, tone and stress. Using numerous case-studies and data from a variety of languages and phenomena (including stress, compensatory lengthening, gemination and word minimality), the book introduces a model that reflects the true behaviour of onsets, demonstrating profound implications for syllable and weight theories.
