A Novel Approach to Develop Dynamic Portable Instructional Operating System for Minimal Utilization

摘要

Most well-known instructional Operating Systems (OSs) are complex, particularly if their companion software is taken into account. It takes considerable time and effort to craft these systems and their complexity may introduce maintenance and evolution problems. The purpose of this paper is to develop a mini OS which is open source and Linux based. This OS is independent of hardware simulator and platform. It encompasses a simplified kernel occupying a low memory with minimal resource consumption. It also, includes a dynamic boot loader which ignores the BIOS priority, takes itself to be as a highest priority. It is designed to utilize low primary memory and minimal CPU utilization. This is developed mainly to satisfy the minimal and basic requirements for a normal desktop user.
