Protection in the Think exokernel
Résumé
In this paper, we present our preliminary ideas concerning the adaptation of security and protection techniques in the Think exokernel. Think is our proposition of a distributed adaptable kernel, designed according to the exokernel architecture. After summing up the main motivations for using the exokernel architecture, we describe the Think exokernel as it has been implemented on a PowerPC machine. We then present the major protection and security techniques that we plan to adapt to the Think environment, and give an example of how some of these techniques can be combined with the Think model to provide fair and protected resource management. Finally, we briefly present the iPAQ Pocket PC to which we plan to port the Think exokernel and explain our interest in this kind of mobile devices.
