Slashdot reopened the endless Linus Torvald vs. Andy Tanenbaum debateabout microkernels and monolithic operating systems. This is asilly discussion akin to debating bicycles versus cars: both are ...

Monolithic integration has been the dominant approach to chip design since the rise of VLSI-based ASICs decades ago. In a monolithic design, all of the building blocks of integrated circuits such as ...

Digital Power System Management (PSM) controllers usually target high current point-of-load (POL) applications. Lower current applications, with up to 6A load current, can also benefit from PSM ...

Operating systems are the backbone of modern computing and play a crucial role in managing the resources of a computer. The design and implementation of an operating system involve a wide range of ...

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