1. INTRODUCTION In computing‚ a mouse is a pointing device that functions by detecting two-dimensional motion relative to its supporting surface. Physically‚ a mouse consists of an object held under one of the user ’s hands‚ with one or more buttons. The mouse sometimes features other elements‚ such as "wheels"‚ which allow the user to perform various system-dependent operations‚ or extra buttons or features that can add more control or dimensional input. The mouse ’s motion typically translates

Systems 5 June 2014 Research Paper: Arrakis Operating System Recent device hardware trends enable a new approach to the design of network servers. In a traditional operating system‚ the kernel mediates access to device hardware by server applications‚ to enforce process isolation as well as network and disk security. Arrakis splits the traditional role of the kernel in two. Applications have direct access to virtualized I/O devices‚ allowing most I/O operations to skip the kernel entirely. Taking
