Many new multi-microprocessor systems are available or have been announced to the market. A method of structured operating-system construction to present a distributed hardware environment as a single computer to the user is proposed. Unlike many existing distributed operating systems, which are parallel and process-oriented, the new approach is based on a hierarchical structure of layers. The concept permits the designer to establish almost any dependencies between local operating systems. A distribution of UNix-like systems in a heterogeneous multi-microprocessor -environment-is proposed. _ . -
