Understanding Operating System Kernels by milanabraham49 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The kernel is the central component of an operating system that manages communication between software and hardware. It performs low-level tasks like scheduling processes, inter-process communication, and context switching. There are two main types of kernels: monolithic kernels provide all OS services in a single block of code, while microkernels separate services into different address spaces to reduce kernel and OS size.
