UNIX processes and POSIX-compatible user-mode APIs #544

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What new or enhanced feature are you proposing?
All studied windowing systems implementations - Nano-X, X11, Wayland - rely on 
unix processes infrastructure, i.e. server and client applications are 
implemented as separate interacting processes. Whereas it is possible to 
transfer some functionality to kernel mode, it doesn't appear to be a good 
solution from various viewpoints.

What goals would this enhancement help you to achieve?
There are numerous benefits of having of having implemented UNIX processes, one 
of which is scalability required to efficiently run windowing systems.

How are you going to implement the enhancement?
