Abstract :
In this paper, we describe operating system support for continuous media applications based on our experience of using the Real-Time Mach microkernel. We first address the limitations of the current workstation operating systems. Then, we discuss operating system support for continuous media from three different points of view: architectural support, resource management support, and programming support. Several Real-Time Mach examples are also discussed
