With those three different OS at hand, I wanna know how they would differ in terms of 'Process Scheduling', 'Inter-process communication', 'Memory Management', and 'File Systems'. Is it as simple as, process scheduling for Linux is done with Completely Fair Scheduler (CFS), while Windows uses ?? and Solaris with ?...…or is there more to it. Someone can help on how I would do it for the others (IPC, etc.) ?
The three major activities of the operating system with regard to memory management are:
- Keeping track of which parts of memory are currently being used and by whom.
- Deciding which processes are to be loaded into memory when memory space becomes available.
- Allocating and deallocating memory space as needed.
so as you already ask upon the difference, mainly the functions and transfer memory programs governs about it on its segmented memory block.
--> Linux is free and easily available as it is platform-independent. Solaris is an operating system based on UNIX OS , Focused enhancements across CPU, memory, file system, I/O, networking these things gives apart from linux and windows in all section's.
Unix and Solaris are the same thing. Here's how the kernel works, which will tell you how processes are prioritised.

Forgot to mention: In the same project you can find papers on 3 different ways of interprocess communication, which are the same on all Unix systems.
Thanks Mark Sitkowski and Shivam Bhatt
This is what I found:
Linux (Process Scheduling, File systems, Memory management, and IPC)
* outdated but, up to the point for understanding

Solaris (Process Scheduling, File systems, Memory management, and IPC)

Windows (Process Scheduling, File systems, Memory management, and IPC)
* part 9 of slide 21 + contains Linux and other OS slides too
