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

Richard Johnson

Sinossi

"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.

Internet Governance - Policies...

Craig Dames

Internet governance refers to the development and application of rules, policies, and practices that shape the evolution and use of the internet. It involves multiple stakeholders, including governments, private sector entities, civil society organizations, and technical communities. As the internet has grown from an academic experiment to a global infrastructure, the need for effective governance has become increasingly crucial. The way the internet is managed impacts digital rights, economic development, and global security, making governance a central issue in today’s interconnected world. 
The origins of internet governance can be traced back to the early days of the internet, when management was primarily handled by academic and research institutions. Over time, as commercial interests and governmental involvement increased, governance structures evolved to accommodate new challenges. Organizations like the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and the Internet Governance Forum (IGF) were established to facilitate discussions on technical coordination, policy-making, and regulation. The involvement of international bodies such as the United Nations further highlights the growing importance of internet governance in global affairs. 
A fundamental aspect of internet governance is the balance between different stakeholder interests. Governments seek to regulate the internet to ensure national security, protect citizens' rights, and maintain economic stability. Meanwhile, private companies advocate for minimal regulation to encourage innovation and market growth. Civil society organizations focus on issues such as privacy, digital rights, and access to information. This multistakeholder model aims to create a collaborative and inclusive approach to governance, but it also presents challenges in reaching consensus on key issues.

Nuclear Fusion - The Race to...

Sharon Ann Holgate

'Holgate guides us expertly and with a deft touch along the journey towards the holy grail of unlimited energy for all.' - JIM AL-KHALILI
'What is nuclear fusion? In clear and accessible language, this book explains the basics and the hope for the future. A valuable addition to the Hot Science series.' - JOHN GRIBBIN
Could the Sun hold the key to a future of clean energy?

Since the 1950s, scientists have attempted to harness nuclear fusion - the process that creates the Sun's energy - to generate near-limitless amounts of electricity.

But the fact that we still have no fusion power plants is testament to the complexities of the challenge. Now, the deepening climate crisis means that researchers around the world are in a race to create a mini-Sun here on Earth. The glittering prize is an energy source that emits no greenhouse gases and could solve energy equity and supply issues at a stroke.

Sharon Ann Holgate, a former Young Professional Physicist of the Year, tells the compelling story of the ongoing scientific quest for a revolutionary new era of green energy production.
