Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Delve inside the Windows kernel with noted internals experts Mark Russinovich and David Solomon, in collaboration with the Microsoft Windows product development team. This classic guide—fully updated for Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, and Windows 2000, including 64-bit extensions—describes the architecture and internals of the Windows operating system. Youll find hands-on experiments you can use to experience Windows internal behavior firsthand, along with advanced troubleshooting information to help you keep your systems running smoothly and efficiently. Whether youre a developer or a system administrator, youll find critical architectural insights that you can quickly apply for better design, debugging, performance, and support.

Get in-depth, inside knowledge of the Windows operating system:

  • Understand the key mechanisms that configure and control Windows, including dispatching, startup and shutdown, and the registry
  • Explore the Windows security model, including access, privileges, and auditing
  • Investigate internal system architecture using the kernel debugger and other tools
  • Examine the data structures and algorithms that deal with processes, threads, and jobs
  • Observe how Windows manages virtual and physical memory
  • Understand the operation and format of NTFS, and troubleshoot file system access problems
  • View the Windows networking stack from top to bottom, including mapping, APIs, name resolution, and protocol drivers
  • Troubleshoot boot problems and perform crash analysis

Book News Annotation:

Russinovich is cofounder of Winternals Software (which was recently acquired by Microsoft), and has now joined the Microsoft Platforms & Services Division as a technical fellow; Solomon teaches classes on Windows internals and is a regular speaker at Microsoft technical conferences worldwide. They offer advanced computer professionals the latest edition of the definitive book on the core Windows internals. Focusing on the base system components of the operating system, the text is not a user, programming, or system administration book, so does not describe how to use, program, or configure Windows. The fourth edition brings a title change from the 2000 Inside Windows 2000, Third Edition and has been updated to cover the kernel changes made in Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, including support for 64-bit systems. Updated and new hands-on experiments are included, using tools not available when the previous edition was published.
