متن کاملProviding a Linux API on the Scalable K42 Kernel
K42 is an open-source research kernel targeted for 64bit cache-coherent multiprocessor systems. It was designed to scale up to multiprocessor systems containing hundreds or thousands of processors and to scale down to perform well on 2to 4-way multiprocessors. K42’s goal was to re-design the core of an operating system, but not an entire application environment. We wanted to use a commonly avai...
متن کاملK 42 Overview Jonathan Appavoo Marc Auslander
K42 is an open-source research kernel for cache-coherent 64-bit multiprocessor systems. K42 focuses on achieving good performance and scalability, providing a customizable and maintainable system, and being accessible to a large community through an open source development model. To that end, K42 fully supports the Linux API and ABI and uses Linux libraries, device drivers, file systems, and ot...

متن کاملDynamic Update for Operating Systems
Patches to modern operating systems, including bug fixes and security updates, and the reboots and downtime they require, cause tremendous problems for system users and administrators. The aim of this research is to develop a model for dynamic update of operating systems, allowing a system to be patched without the need for a reboot or other service interruption. In this work, a model for dynam...
