Pictures of Berlin
I've added the pictures of
Berlin to my gallery. It was the 12th of October. And we travelled there
because of this
demonstration.
I hope you enjoy the pictures somehow. :-)

Singularity
Currently my blogging queue is a little bit huge, but my time is inverse proportional.
Nevertheless was my presentation about
Singularity
some weeks ago.
It's a Microsoft research project
with the main point of security, and not of performance.
There you've got the concepts of the so called
Software Isolated Processeses (SIP). You need the MMU only for one huge address space so you
save a lot by doing a context switch.
Again: You do the process isolation only in software and not in hardware any more.
That's why there are a lot of things which aren't allowed now: for example plugins and
shared memory communication.
In the next months I will publish a short paper 'bout Singularity. I do this
for university, so don't call me a Microsoft guy. The whole arrangement
is about secure operating systems.
At least it's a very interesting start point to think about security.
