BOSTON OS/2 USERS' GROUP (BCS)
PREREGISTRATION NOT REQUIRED
[ FREE SOFTWARE DOOR PRIZES ]
THE IBM MICROKERNEL TECHNOLOGY
Date : April 5, 1994 Time : 7:00 p.m.
An examination by IBM's Pylee Lennil of how the microkernal
can be used as the foundation for a highly modular,
portable, and secure operating system that can support
multiproccessor and multiple operating system personalities.
The microkernal is object-oriented in nature: its services
and resources such as tasks, threads, virtual memory
regions, files and processors are represented as objects.
Each object provides a set of operations that can be invoked
by sending messages to that object, which in turn invokes
the functions that correspond to each operation. This meeting
will be held at our new location . . . directions below.
OS WARS . . . A REPORT FROM THE FRONT
Date : May 3, 1994 Time : 7:00 p.m.
Mr. William F. Zachmann, President of Canopus Research and host
of the Canopus Research Forum on CompuServe (GO CANOPUS), is
a world renowned expert on information technology and the industries
built around it. In recent years, Mr. Zachmann has been virtually
the only industry analyst consistently to predict eventual success
for IBM's OS/2. He also predicted that Windows NT would prove
disappointing. He has written in the past for InfoWorld, PC Week,
and the like. Today he is a columnist (and Senior Contributing Editor)
for OS/2 Professional and a regular columnist for Windows World
(Japan).
