Zusammenfassung: | Minix is a Unix clone Operating Systems to be run on IBM PCs and compatibles, designed by Tanembaum [10] for courses in the area.Accepting the Tanembaum's proposal, this document describes the results of some extensions on the internal work of Minix as an exercise on Operating Systems Design and Implementation that attempts to transfer that experience to other groups of interest.The paper intends to be interpreted as a report remarking what kind of work was done having at our disposal an extensively documented copy of the source code of an operating system, taking into account that the developers are undergraduates in Computer Science.Further details on implementations will be available in future publications [1], [4], [6]. |
