Exokernel: an operating system architecture for application-level resource management, Dawson R. Engler, M. Frans Kaashoek, and James O'Toole, Jr. In.

Historically, memory corruption errors have accounted for a large portion of kernel bugs. These bugs are difficult to detect and avoid in memory-unsafe languages such as C. To mitigate such bugs, we build …

Also for development teams that prefer a microkernel architecture, the Wind River hypervisor is a Type 1 hypervisor with a messaging microkernel that uses either synchronous or asynchronous …

Microkernel architectures facilitate the development of robust telecommunications systems by enabling fault isolation and modularity. Different network services can run in isolated environments, allowing …

There are two di erent concepts of kernels: monolithic ker-nel and -kernel (microkernel). The older approach is the monolithic kernel, of which Unix, MS-DOS and the early Mac OS are typical …

While the microkernel architecture often imple-ments the core system as a monolith and it, with all its plug-ins, is often deployed as a single monolith (e.g. a web browser), that is not the only approach to …
