The paper outlines the high‑level implementation of the resident UNIX kernel. The implementation is explained in three parts covering process and user management, the I/O system, and the file system.
This paper describes in high-level terms the implementation of the resident uNIX∗ kernel. This discussion is broken into three parts. The first part describes how the UNIX system views processes, users, and programs. The second part describes the I/O system. The last part describes the UNIX file system.
