Book |
Description |

Introduction to Algorithms
C.L.R.S |
Cormen covers entire GATE syllabus (and much more) in Algorithms as well as Data Structures. Language is simple for most part but some mathematics is required to understand the analysis parts. (This book is only for learning algorithms and theory of data structures and there is no sample programs given in it) |
Fundamentals of Computer Algorithms
Rajasekaran, Sahni, Horowitz |
This book is Mini version of Cormen’s book , this cover almost everything with short discussions ,which is written in Cormen with more pages.
Use this book along with NPTEL lecture of Professor Naveen Garg . Actually if u see prof Garg’s Nptel upon DS you will find slides are taken from this book. Slides are available online in the following link: |
Design & Analysis of Computer Algorithms
Aho, Hopcroft, Ullman |
Another classic book for algorithms. |
Book |
Description |

Database Systems
Elmasri, Navathe |
Covers entire GATE syllabus and especially good for file structures and normalization |
Database Systems
Connolly, Begg |
Covers entire GATE syllabus and is easy to understand. |
Database Management Systems
Raghu Ramakrishnan |
Another very good book especially for Transaction management and Normalization. |
Database System
Widom, Ullman, Garcia-Molina |
Another very good book. |
Database System Concepts
Silberschatz |
Very good book but English is bit high standard |
Book |
Description |
---|---|
Compilers : Principles, Techniques, & Tools
Aho, Sethi, Ulman, Lam |
One and only book. If you find the explanations tough, start looking at the given examples, they are easy to follow |
Book |
Description |
---|---|
Operating System Concepts
Silberschatz, Galvin |
Very good for learning theory in OS. English is good to understand. Writing style is pretty easy and fun. Enough for GATE |
Modern Operating Systems
Tanenbaum |
The Book , but if you read Galvin it is ok , read Tanenbaum for more Knowledge. It contains great number of problems. Also includes some of theory that is not included in Galvin’s book. |
Book |
Description |
---|---|
An Introduction To Formal Languages And Automata
Peter Linz |
Most recommended one for GATE |
Introduction to Theory of Computation
Sipser |
Sipser is a quick and comprehensive guide. It is recommended to be read after you have grip on the subject. |
Introduction To Computer Theory
Cohen |
Cohen can be read if very good detailed analysis is required. SPOON FEEDING ! |
Introduction to Automata Theory, Languages, and Computation
Hopcroft |
In most colleges you will find this book as a Main book , but believe me within Cohen or Linz, if you read any one of them , Enough! |
Book |
Description |

Computer Organization
Vranesic, Zaky, Hamacher |
|
Computer Organization and Architecture : Designing for Performance
Stallings |
|
Computer Systems: A Programmers perspective | This is a really good book in perspective of architecture as a simple view of how the actual hardware is organised is given. Apart from the classical confusing diagrams, this book has simple ones which is quite clear in its meaning. The explanation for pipeline execution and hazards are really good. This book is no longer in print, but you can get its pdf by clicking in the link provided. Highly recommended if you have time as this covers many of the other CS subjects as well. |
Book |

Computer Networks
Peterson, Davie |
Most recommended for GATE |
Data Communication & Networks
Forouzan |
Good book with Basics clear |
Computer Netwroks
Tanenbaum, Wetherall |
One can not neglect the amazing book by tanenbaum. It contains everything in a very well written way. It is amusing and `it deals with issues in a manner you want to do. If you are starting the subject, go with it. It is not recommended for last time reading. Keep making good notes if you read his book. |
Computer Networking: A Top-Down Approach
Kurose |
Kurose is best for Almost all fundamental concept with clear figure and very understandable manners |
Book |
Description |
---|---|
The C Programming Language
Kernighan, Ritchie |
No comments- This is the best. To really understand the working of C, you must read this book. If you find this book tough, that means you have to correct your concepts by talking to knowledgeable people. Many local books, skips difficult to digest concepts and make easy to read books- but to get everything you have to follow this book. |
Data Structures Using C
Aaron M. Tenenbaum |
For most of the data structure concepts |

Mathematical Introduction to Logic
Enderton |
Buy only if needed. The GATE topic is only till first order logic and these questions can be solved just by practising previous year papers. But NEVER ignore this topic. |
Combinatory
Probability
Book |
Description |

A First Course in Probability
Ross |
Sheldon ross’s book (1st course in Probability) is undoubtedly very good. But you have to read this book very deeply page by page. |
Book |

Discrete Mathematics and Its Applications with Combinatorics and Graph Theory
Rosen |
Best book for Discrete Mathematics. Even covers Graph Theory. |
Book |
Description |

Introduction to Graph Theory
Douglas B. West |
First 4 chapters are important for GATE |
Graph Theory With Applications To Engineering And Computer Science
Deo |
Good and concise books. If you have followed this book during bachelors, then it is enough for GATE. |
Book |
Description |
