微内核操作系统设计方法及其设计实例的比较

Design of Microkernal Operating System and Comparision of Examples

微内核操作系统提供了并行计算机所需的功能和性能，是并行操作系统的发展方向。并行计算机上的每个结点上运行的操作系统又与一般计算机上的操作系统有极大区别，而大规模并行计算机则是超级计算机技术发展的必然趋势。讨论了微内核操作系统的基本设计方法，介绍了Ａｍｏｅｂａ、Ｍａｃｈ、Ｃｈｏｒｕｓ等几个典型实例。

Microkernal operating system provides parallel computer with necessary function and performance, and is a developing direction of parallel operating system. There are great difference between the operating systems run on nodes of parallel computer and that on general computer, moreover, massively parallel computer is a certain developing trend of super microkernal computer technology. Basic design method of microkernal operating systems is discussed, and typical examples, Amoeba, Mach, Chorus etc, are introduced.
