Abstract: It is possible to distinguish between policy and mechanism in operating system design. There is a trend to move policy out of the operating system kernel and into the user-level. This trend is described with respect to example operating system types. A system is proposed which takes this policy/mechanism split to the extreme of having the operating system kernel reduced to a hardware object which provides a low-level but abstract view of the actual hardware. Such a system would be flexible... (Update)
