The lessons are partially based on the book:

W. Stallings, "Operating Systems: Internals and Design Principles", 6th edition. Prentice Hall.

Some contents are available on the slides linked in the HomePage of the course.
For practical exercises there is no book and there supposes the student attending the course. However the following information could be useful:

On-line Documentations about Unix/Linux commands.
M. Cooper - Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide
Any Tutorial about AWK
Any Tutorial about C Programming Language
