Endorsed by IBM, this reference constitutes an authoritative and helpful introduction to both IBM's RS/6000 workstations and UNIX for the UNIX novice.

Written for novice to experienced UNIX users, this book describes IBM's RS/6000 open system operation with balanced coverage of RISC technology, AIX compiler design, programming environment, Window user interfaces, system administration requirements, mass storage capabilities, networking structures, system security procedures, and more.

This book is designed to serve as a single reference source for the POWER RS/6000 family of workstations. Starting with a comprehensive overview of hardware and software concepts from a user's perspective, the book then focuses on the facilities available in the operating system and hardware subsystems from a systems point of view.
