It is the "portion of the operating system code that is always resident in memory",
[2] and facilitates interactions between hardware and software components. On most systems, the kernel is one of the first programs loaded on
startup (after the
bootloader). It handles the rest of startup as well as memory,
peripherals, and
input/output (I/O) requests from
software, translating them into
data-processing instructions for the
central processing unit.

Kernels the application software to the hardware of a computer The kernel is a computer program at the core of a computer's operating system and has complete control over everything in the system.[1] <span>It is the "portion of the operating system code that is always resident in memory",[2] and facilitates interactions between hardware and software components.

It handles the rest of startup as well as memory, peripherals, and input/output (I/O) requests from software, translating them into data-processing instructions for the central processing unit. The critical code of the kernel is usually loaded into a separate area of memory, which is protected from access by application software or other, less critical parts of the operating s Summary
