Research questions on FreeBSD 4.10

[Jason Tan]

Hi,


I am currently doing a research on FreeBSD 4.10 Release System for a 
presentation to an institution of 400 students.

I would like to enquire on several questions regarding the Operating System 
: -

- Process Management / Model
- Scheduling
  * Is it preemptive ?
  * Discuss the algorithm
- Threading model
  * User, kernel or hybrid?
- File System
  * Discuss more than one if applicable
- Device management
- Memory management
- Programming language supported (and recommendation)
- Networking support
- Security model
  * User security
  * File System security
- Compare the current version of the OS that you're researching with the 
previous and future version


We look forward for your speedy reply.


Thanks and Regards,


Jeff Neufield
