Write down the various kinds of Kernel?
Expert
Kernels are essentially of two kinds which are illustrated below:
a.) Monolithic Kernels - In this kind of kernel, all the system services were packaged in a single system module that leads to poor maintainability and vast size of kernel.
b.) Microkernels - They pursue the modular approach of architecture. Maintainability became simpler with this model as only the concerned module is to be loaded and changed for every feature. This model also stores a tab on the ever growing code size of the kernel.
