All Book Download,| Virtual Machines | This book offers a unique insight into the building of virtual machines for sequential, object-oriented and parallel languages, and uses comparisons of different VMs to provide actual, practical examples. State transitions are used as a formal technique for the specification of virtual machines throughout and – in addition – transitions and state transitions relating to the general operation are included for specification of the virtual machine for the event-based system. Two virtual machines are defined using a simple sequential language, which is then generalised to include object and parallelism. Other themes explored include the implementation of VMs and proposals for future work. Appendices contain high-level. When I first received my copy of "Virtual Machines" and opened it up to the preface, the first thing I felt was rage. There is a grammatical error in the very first sentence! I closed the book and shelved it for over six months. This is an expensive, thin book, and I am simply not interested in paying a premium for low volume technical books if the publisher does nothing more than print camera-ready copy and mark up the result 1000%.
That rant aside, I find Craig's book to be pretty decent. The technical content of the book is sound, and the depth is appropriate for an audience that is interested in writing basic virtual machines. I also have a copy of Virtual Machines: Versatile Platforms for Systems and Processes (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Computer Architecture and Design), and I find that the two books complement each other rather nicely
