Kaneton

Kaneton

kaneton is a microkernel project which aims at providing a very clear, extensible and powerful design.

kaneton does not intend to become a Unix-like operating system. In fact, The kaneton project has two objectives:

# The kaneton educational project consists in providing everything necessary to understand how an operating system kernel works. Therefore, the kaneton microkernel was designed and implemented in a way that allows students to very quickly understand how things work.
# The kaneton research project which aims at building a powerful, reliable and secure microkernel. The kayou distributed operating system is being developed on top of the kaneton microkernel as kaneton provides features for managing distribution and security.

Since 2004, the kaneton educational project is used as material for advanced operating systems courses in a [http://www.epita.fr French Grande Ecole] . Note that the source code is withheld from public view to prevent student cheating during assignments. However, exception can be made for other professors willing to use the instructional project in their university.
