Operating systems tutorial

Anyone know where you can find info on how an operating system communicates with hardware? I was looking for reference links for my students and a lot of it will be way over their heads.

I just did a google search for interrupt handlers linux and I found this as well as a bunch of other links.

Are you looking for something more specific? What level class are we talking about? The concept of in interrupt handler is pretty straight forward.
