PYI: High Performance Operating Systems

本研究的重点是高性能操作系统， 单处理器和多处理器。 架构和编程 技术，这两个领域的边界操作系统， 在过去的十年里发生了翻天覆地的变化。 可惜 操作系统对这些变化的反应是轻微的。 因此，整体系统性能的增长速度大大降低 比这两个领域的进展都要快。 三个基本问题是进程间通信、虚拟 内存管理和分布式内存并行编程。 的 目标是使操作系统技术与现代 建筑和现代编程系统。

This research focuses on high performance operating systems for uniprocessors and multiprocessors. Architecture and programming technology, the two fields which border operating systems, have undergone radical changes in the last ten years. Unfortunately, the reaction of operating systems to these changes has been slight. Consequently, overall system performance is growing much less quickly than advances in either of these areas would lead one to predict. Three fundamental issues are interprocess communication, virtual memory management, and distributed memory parallel programming. The goal is to bring operating systems technology into step with modern architecture and modern programming systems.
