DescriptionLightweight multi-kernel operating systems -- where Linux and a lightweight kernel run side-by-side on a compute node -- have received attention recently for their potential to solve many of the challenges system software faces as we move toward ever more complex and parallel systems.
The four leading multi-kernel projects are at a stage where input from users, runtime developers, and programming model architects, is desired to guide further design and implementation. This BOF is an ideal venue to engage the community, foster participation, and initiate long term collaboration.
