ABSTRACT
As application requirements diverge, it is becoming increasingly clear that the one size fits all operating system design strategy is obsolete. Customizable system services would allow application-specific optimizations, and various customization strategies have been proposed. These vary widely and, depending on the required level of application-developer involvement, can be categorized as parametric variation, interposition or synthesis methods. We present a common architectural infrastructure for operating system components which allows customization by any of these approaches. Our ongoing implementation based on this framework is beginning to show that support for application-specific customization can be incorporated into existing commercial operating systems.
