Line 1: {{Template:Kernel designs}} == Design == [[Image:Microkernel.png\|frame\|right\|Basic overview of a microkernel]] A Microkernel tries to run most services - like networking, filesystem, etc. - as daemons / servers in user space. All that's left to do for the kernel are basic services, like memory allocation (however, the actual memory '''manager''' is implemented in userspace), scheduling, and messaging (Inter Process Communication). Line 14: It's also possible for an OS design to borrow concepts from both monolithic kernels and micro-kernels in order to use the benefits of either method where appropriate. == Examples == * Mach * QNX * [[L4]] * AmigaOS * [http://minix3.org Minix] == See Also == === Forum Threads === * [[Topic:10099\|microkernels]] * [[Topic:10234\|discussing microkernel vs modular macrokernel]] ~~==External Links==~~ [http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Software/Operating_Systems/Microkernel/ 'microkernel' google directory]▼ ===~~=Recommended~~ ~~Reading=~~External Links === ▲ [http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Software/Operating_Systems/Microkernel/ 'microkernel' google directory] [http://www.google.com/search?q=The+Increasing+Irrelevance+of+IPC+Performance+for+Microkernel-Based+Operating+Systems The Increasing Irrelevance of IPC performance in Microkernel-based Operating Systems] by Brian N.
