A big monolithic OS (like Linux and Windows), on the other hand,provides far more services in the protected kernel space. Linux'skernel is over 2 million lines of code; Window's is far ...

Researchers contend almost all Linux OS flaws could be mitigated to less-than-critical severity with an OS design based on a verified microkernel.

Fuchsia’s kernel, dubbed Zircon, takes a microkernel approach that’s very different than the larger monolithic Linux kernels that power Google’s other operating systems.

None of the "big three" desktop OS' has a pure microkernel. NT and Darwin originate from MK designs that were turned into rather monolithic approaches for practical reasons, Linux is a monolith ...

Move over, Microsoft Singularity. There's another microkernel, C#-based operating system in town. And this one's available under an open-source license.

Technically speaking, this static binding of modular components melds just the OS services an application needs into the block of monolithic C code. The result is an OS-less, high-level C program that ...

Microsoft's researchers are working on yet another operating-system research project which can trace its roots to the company's Singularity project. This new operating system, known as Helios, is ...
