Recent research in operating systems has led to major strides in the structuring of services using microkernels. Leading researchers and developers agree that future systems will be based on microkernels and will rely on customization of specific operating systems services to a specific application environment. In response to the trend toward customizing operating systems, this project focuses on developing an undergraduate operating systems laboratory built upon a network of dedicated Power PCs using the IBM Microkernel. The department is replacing its existing undergraduate-level operating systems and computer networks courses with two new courses, Operating Systems I and II, that use the IBM microkernel-based system as a reference point and a medium to perform system-level experimentation. Class materials, including lab exercises based on the microkernel, can be made available over World Wide Web. This project is securing a network of IBM Power PC workstations.

最近在操作系统的研究已经导致了使用微内核的服务结构的重大进展。领先的研究人员和开发人员一致认为，未来的系统将基于微内核，并将依赖于针对特定应用环境的特定操作系统服务的定制。 为了响应定制操作系统的趋势，本项目的重点是开发一个本科生操作系统实验室，该实验室建立在使用IBM Microkernel的专用Power PC网络上。该系正在用两门新课程-操作系统一和二-取代现有的本科生级操作系统和计算机网络课程，这两门新课程使用基于IBM微内核的系统作为参考点和进行系统级实验的媒介。课堂材料，包括基于微内核的实验练习，可以在万维网上获得。这个项目是确保IBM Power PC工作站网络的安全。
