Abstract:
<p> The advent of hypervisors revolutionized the computing industry in terms of <i>malware prevention and detection, secure virtual machine managers, </i> and <i>cloud resilience.</i> However, this has resulted in a disjointed response to handling known threats rather than preventing unknown <i>zero-day</i> threats. This thesis introduces a new paradigm to cloud computing &ndash; <i>utility virtual machines</i> &ndash; that directly leverages virtualization hardware for protection and eliminates often accepted roles of the operating system kernel. This represents a break from prevailing practi

Abstract:
Patches to modern operating systems, including bug fixes and security updates, and the reboots and downtime they require, cause tremendous problems for system users and administrators. The aim of this research is to develop a model for dynamic update of operating systems, allowing a system to be patched without the need for a reboot or other service interruption. In this work, a model for dynamic update based on operating system modularity is developed and evaluated using a prototype implementation for the K42 operating system. The prototype is able to update kernel code and data structures, e

Abstract:
Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2001.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 153-159).<br>Energy efficient system design is becoming increasingly important with the proliferation of portable, battery-operated appliances such as laptops, Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) and cellular phones. Numerous dedicated hardware approaches for energy mini-mization have been proposed while software energy efficiency has been relatively unexplored. Since it is the software that drives the hardware, decisions taken during sof

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation explores operating system mechanisms to allow resource-aware applications to be involved in the process of managing resources under the premise that these applications (1) potentially have some (implicit) notion of their future resource demands and (2) can adapt their resource demands. The general idea is to provide feedback to resource-aware applications so that they can proactively participate in the management of resources. This approach has the benefit that resource management policies can be removed from central entities and the operating system has only to provide mecha

Abstract:
A defining feature of the modern era of computer technologies has been a massive reliance upon the mass consumption of personal operating system software. Currently three products dominate how the world experiences computer operating system – Microsoft‘s Windows, Apple‘s Mac, and Linux. The near monopoly held by Windows has been a crucial enabler of the ICT revolution, while the small but significant markets held by Mac and Linux provide alternatives to Windows monoculture. Aside from their technical differences each offers distinct examples of modern-day branding, with individuals forming com
