In computer science, a microkernel (often abbreviated as μ-kernel) is the near-minimum amount of software that can provide the mechanisms needed to implement an operating system (OS). These mechanisms include low-level address space management, thread management, and inter-process communication (IPC).
F9 microkernel, [35] a BSD-licensed L4 implementation, is dedicated to ARM Cortex-M processors for deeply embedded devices with memory protection. The NOVA OS Virtualization Architecture [ 36 ] is a research project with focus on constructing a secure and efficient virtualization environment [ 37 ] [ 38 ] with a small trusted computing base.
As portions were completed various parts of the BSD system were re-written to call into Mach, and a change to 4.3BSD was also made during this process. By 1986 the system was complete to the point of being able to run on its own on the DEC VAX. Although doing little of any practical value, the goal of making a microkernel was realized.
A microkernel is a minimal computer operating system kernel which, in its purest form, provides no operating system services at all, only the mechanisms needed to implement such services, such as low-level address space management, thread management, and inter-process communication (IPC).
Microkernel (also abbreviated μK or uK) is the term describing an approach to operating system design by which the functionality of the system is moved out of the traditional "kernel", into a set of "servers" that communicate through a "minimal" kernel, leaving as little as possible in "system space" and as much as possible in "user space".
μT-Kernel is an open source real-time operating system (RTOS) designed for 16-and 8-bit microcontrollers. "μ” in the name stands for "micro" and pronounced as such.It is not pronounced as "mu".
This is a list of auto parts, which are manufactured components of automobiles. This list reflects both fossil-fueled cars (using internal combustion engines) and electric vehicles; the list is not exhaustive. Many of these parts are also used on other motor vehicles such as trucks and buses.
The L4.sec system, which is a successor to the L4 microkernel family, is a capability-based system, and has been significantly influenced by the results of the EROS project. The influence is mutual, since the EROS work on high-performance invocation was motivated strongly by Jochen Liedtke's successes with the L4 microkernel family.
