Abstract:
Traditional operating system architectures are not able to cope with the demands of ubiquitous computing. These demands include mobility of code and running applications, precise resource control, robustness, and user-friendly failure handling. Furthermore, traditional operating systems were designed for desktop or server use and contain functionality that is ballast for a ubiquitous system. One example for such ballast is the file system.
We describe JX, our own operating system architecture, that has the desired properties, follows a microkernel approach, and structures the operating system as a set of components
