Architecture of Windows NT Operating System
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 10
Abstract
The architecture of Windows NT, a line of operating systems produced and sold by Microsoft, is a layered design that consists of two main components, user mode and kernel mode. It is a preemptive, reentrant operating system, which has been designed to work with uniprocessor and symmetrical multi-processor (SMP)-based computers. The Microsoft Windows NT operating system was designed and built with fully integrated networking capabilities. These networking capabilities differentiate Windows NT from other operating systems, such as MS-DOS, OS/2, and UNIX, in which network capabilities are installed separately from the core operating system. It was initially hyped as the replacement for all other operating systems for Intel-based PCs, but it was somewhat slow to catch on and was later redirected to the upper end of the market, where it found a niche. It is gradually becoming more popular at the low end as well. This research paper includes the design goals and rationale for the Windows NT operating system.
