Microkernel Architecture Design and Implementation - Definitive Reference for Developers and Engineers

Richard Johnson

Maison d'édition: HiTeX Press

Synopsis

"Microkernel Architecture Design and Implementation""Microkernel Architecture Design and Implementation" provides a comprehensive, state-of-the-art exploration of the principles, design patterns, and real-world deployments of microkernel operating systems. Beginning with an authoritative introduction to the evolution of kernel architecture, the book traces the shift from monolithic to microkernel paradigms, unpacks the nuances that define microkernels, and evaluates their relative strengths across performance, security, and extensibility. Readers are guided through detailed comparisons, influential systems such as Mach and seL4, and diverse use cases ranging from embedded and real-time environments to high-assurance, security-critical domains.Building on this solid foundation, the book delves deeply into both foundational and advanced design concepts, including process isolation, minimal trusted computing bases, and capability-based security architectures. Clear explanations of core mechanisms—such as inter-process communication, scheduling models, driver architecture, and fault containment—are complemented by practical discussions of system resource management, user-level service structuring, and hot-swappable system components. Throughout, an emphasis on robustness and verification shines, with thorough coverage of formal specification, automated model checking, and lessons from historical vulnerabilities.Rounding out its technical depth, the volume addresses performance engineering, scalability for manycore and NUMA architectures, and adaptation to cloud, edge, and IoT environments. With rich case studies, the book exemplifies the practical benefits and deployment strategies for microkernel systems in distributed and virtualized infrastructures. Concluding with research frontiers in composability, language-based extensions, AI integration, and formal synthesis, "Microkernel Architecture Design and Implementation" is an indispensable resource for engineers, architects, and researchers committed to building the next generation of high-assurance operating systems.

A patient’s and provider’s guide to the telehealth revolution

What if we could see a doctor faster, more efficiently, and at a lower cost? With the emergence of telemedicine, we now can. And this book is a primer on telemedicine for anyone who wants to take charge of their health and understand all their healthcare options.

A mix of patient stories, research, and viewpoints from practicing physicians, Skip the Waiting Room explores telemedicine from all angles. Among other topics, it explains:

• How telehealth will positively change how providers deliver care
• How remote care can expand access to rural and marginalized groups
• What types of care are best suited for telehealth and what types are not
• Why telehealth is not just for the sick

This valuable guide illustrates why telemedicine is not only a viable solution to many of our healthcare problems but also an inevitable and crucial one.

Strategic Heart Failure - The...

MD Marc Silver

Written by one of the country's leading experts on Heart Failure, this completely new book provides a personalized approach, information and advice, guiding you and your family towards getting optimal heart failure care. Heart failure still affects over 6 million Americans, fill our hospitals and consumes enormous healthcare resources in the US and worldwide. Much of the impact of heart failure is lack of process and coordination of care with patients firmly inserted as team members. 
Dr. Silver says, "Strategic Heart Failure is a distillation of how my team and I helped patients and improved their outcomes for almost 4 decades. I want to share this approach directly with patients; they can help lead their healthcare, understand how decisions are made and improve the entire process of heart failure care." 
Understanding of a few fundamentals of heart failure care, especially the metrics and language that guideline directed care is crafted from, patients and families can not only join their care team but become the CEO! This Strategic approach moves people with heart failure from patients to partners within a caring, coordinated and engaged teams. 
Four prior editions of his books, Success with Heart Failure, elevated the understanding of the heart failure syndrome among thousands worldwide. His motivation for Strategic Heart Failure was his realization that his work on clinical trials, research, training other men and women professionals, serving on national guideline committees, being an Editor- in-Chief of a heart failure journal and even being one of the first Board Certified Fellows in Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant was not enough. Even having one of the finest and most dedicated teams was not enough. It is critical for: 
The patient to be involved 
The patient to be the team leader 
The patient to speak the "Heart Failure" language and understand the rationale and process for every life impacting decision.<
