  2. Deconvolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deconvolution

    When performing image synthesis in radio interferometry, a specific kind of radio astronomy, one step consists of deconvolving the produced image with the "dirty beam", which is a different name for the point spread function. A commonly used method is the CLEAN algorithm.

  3. Exokernel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exokernel

    Exokernel is an operating system kernel developed by the MIT Parallel and Distributed Operating Systems group, [1] and also a class of similar operating systems. Operating systems generally present hardware resources to applications through high-level abstractions such as (virtual) file systems.

  4. Systems architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_architecture

    Example of a high-level systems architecture for a computer. A system architecture is the conceptual model that defines the structure, behavior, and views of a system. [1] An architecture description is a formal description and representation of a system, organized in a way that supports reasoning about the structures and behaviors of the system.

  5. Hybrid kernel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_kernel

    The Windows NT operating system family's architecture consists of two layers (user mode and kernel mode), with many different modules within both of these layers.One prominent example of a hybrid kernel is the Microsoft Windows NT kernel that powers all operating systems in the Windows NT family, up to and including Windows 11 and Windows Server 2022, and powers Windows Phone 8, Windows Phone ...

  6. List of Linux-supported computer architectures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Linux-supported...

    The relevant term is of the porting target is computer architecture; it comprises the instruction set(s) and the microarchitecture(s) of the processor(s), at least of the CPU. The target also comprises the "system design" of the entire system, be it a supercomputer, a desktop computer or some SoC, e.g. in case some unique bus is being

  7. Hardware abstraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_abstraction

    A hardware abstraction layer (HAL) is an abstraction layer, implemented in software, between the physical hardware of a computer and the software that runs on that computer. . Its function is to hide differences in hardware from most of the operating system kernel, so that most of the kernel-mode code does not need to be changed to run on systems with different hardwa

  8. System image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_image

    In computing, a system image is a serialized copy of the entire state of a computer system stored in some non-volatile form, such as a binary executable file.. If a system has all its state written to a disk (i.e. on a disk image), then a system image can be produced by copying the disk to a file elsewhere, often with disk cloning applications.

  9. Monolithic kernel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monolithic_kernel

    A monolithic kernel is an operating system architecture with the entire operating system running in kernel space. The monolithic model differs from other architectures such as the microkernel [1] [2] in that it alone defines a high-level virtual interface over computer hardware. A set of primitives or system calls implement all operating system ...
