Abstract

Now these days educational institutes are facing the challenge of managing the full technologies stack for the students. Most of the institutes are managing their infrastructure on windows operating system. It will take lots of investments to manage the infrastructure on Microsoft technologies like windows operating system, windows server, SQL server, visual studio etc. Our main aim to minimize this investment for the educational institutes. So we want to develop an open source operating system based on linux with simplified UI and experience i.e. Zinc OS. Institutes can use Zinc OS and they can install the windows applications on our operating system. We studied about the development of a common kernel that can support Linux and Windows system calls and provide a common platform for Linux packages and windows software’s. Linux Kernel supports ELF based executable formats but Windows NT Kernel supports PE based executable formats. So it is very difficult to develop a common kernel and operating system which can support to Linux and Windows applications. We provide support for ELF and PE based executable format by using windows application compatibility layer (wine library) on main operating system that converts the windows application calls into linux system calls.
