▶Book Description
C++ is the http://contents.kyobobook.co.kr/etc/cntt_etc/partner_06.gifpreferred language for system programming due to its efficient low-level computation, data abstraction, and object-oriented features. System programming is about designing and writing computer programs that interact closely with the underlying operating system and allow computer hardware to interface with the programmer and the user. The C++ System Programming Cookbook will serve as a reference for developers who want to have ready-to-use solutions for the essential aspects of system programming using the latest C++ standards wherever possible.

This C++ book starts out by giving you an overview of system programming and refreshing your C++ knowledge. Moving ahead, you will learn how to deal with threads and processes, before going on to discover recipes for how to manage memory. The concluding chapters will then help you understand how processes communicate and how to interact with the console (console I/O). Finally, you will learn how to deal with time interfaces, signals, and CPU scheduling.

By the end of the book, you will become adept at developing robust systems applications using C++.

▶What You Will Learn
- Get up to speed with the fundamentals including makefile, man pages, compilation, and linking and debugging
- Understand how to deal with time interfaces, signals, and CPU scheduling
- Develop your knowledge of memory management
- Use processes and threads for advanced synchronizations (mutexes and condition variables)
- Understand interprocess communications (IPC): pipes, FIFOs, message queues, shared memory, and TCP and UDP
- Discover how to interact with the console (console I/O)

▶Key Features
- Learn to apply the latest C++ features (from C++11, 14, 17, and 20) to facilitate systems programming
- Create robust and concurrent systems that make the most of the available hardware resources
- Delve into C++ inbuilt libraries and frameworks to design robust systems as per your business needs

▶Who This Book Is For
This book is for C++ developers who want to gain practical knowledge of systems programming. Though no experience of Linux system programming is assumed, intermediate knowledge of C++ is necessary.

출판사 서평

▶ Preface
This book aims to provide ready-to-use solutions (to developers) for the essential aspects of system programming, using the latest C++ standards wherever possible. System programming deals with structuring computer programs that closely interact with the operating system and allow computer hardware to interface with the programmer and the user. Due to its efficient features, namely, low-level computation, data abstraction, and object-oriented features, C++ is the preferred language for system programming. You will learn how to create robust and concurrent systems, and you will also understand the interprocess communication mechanism with shared memory and pipe. Moving forward, you will deep dive into the C++ built-in libraries and frameworks in order to design robust systems as per your requirements.
