Mikrokerns
A microkernel is a minimalist kernel architecture that provides only the most basic services, such as inter-process communication (IPC), basic scheduling, and low-level hardware abstraction. The primary goal of a microkernel is to minimize the amount of code running in kernel mode, thereby reducing the risk of system crashes and enhancing security and stability. This architecture contrasts with monolithic kernels, which include a wide range of operating system services within the kernel.
In a microkernel system, most of the operating system services, such as file systems, device drivers, and
One of the most well-known examples of a microkernel is the Mach kernel, which was developed at
The microkernel approach offers several advantages, including improved fault tolerance, easier debugging, and enhanced security. However,
