First, Hong Meng OS open source releases
August 9, Huawei released at the conference on the whole scene microkernel-based distributed operating system obscurity OS, and OS will be announced obscurity global developer of open source . Meanwhile, Huawei full liberalization of HMS , so that developers can quickly access the global ecological HMS achieve ecological share .
Yu Chengdong, Huawei's consumer business CEO, said, "Hong Meng OS connection all things, choose obscurity is to choose the future. Huawei's long-term commitment, including the underlying technology innovations, including chip and OS, the complex for themselves, simply left to the developer."
Hong Meng OS can be flexibly adapted to the respective terminals scene, even across hardware platforms call, all hardware peripherals each other, there is much room for imagination. Briefly, a split is no longer a future hardware, separate hardware system, but a system across multiple hardware, seamless data, each terminal device to call each other.
(1), Hong Meng Yu Chengdong introduction os the technical characteristics of:
1 , a distributed architecture for the first time for the terminal OS, cross-end seamless collaboration experience. 2 , and high-performance engines is determined delay IPC technology system smoothly. 3 , microkernel-based architecture remodeling of terminal equipment trusted security. 4 , a development supported by the unified IDE, deployment of multi-terminal, terminal cross-ecological sharing.
(2), mainly for Hong Meng OS:
IoT devices (worn, large screen, car, etc.), and is always available on the phone, taking into account the priority ecological reasons to use the Android ecosystem, migrating from Android eco-system is very easy to obscurity, only 1-2 days .
(3), the security level
Can achieve seamless collaboration experience across the terminal, the security level can reach 5 and 5+ is the highest level of security OS .
(4), rights division
Hong Meng rights will be divided into different sub-rights, no Root privileges, to avoid malicious attack means in the past once made Root namely to obtain full rights .
(5) Compatibility:
Linux, Unix and Android systems
Second, Hong Meng two core OS
1, microkernel
(1), and monolithic microkernel distinction:
Macro kernel: all system services into the kernel, file system, device drivers and so on, Andrews is one of the representatives. But macro kernel has irreconcilable contradiction that as operating systems become more complex, the kernel inside things more and more. Prone to worry about the huge amount of system code, the vulnerability can not be avoided and a lot of services, hardware drivers in the kernel, causing the operating system scalability difference between these two issues
Microkernel: The core idea is to simplify the kernel, the kernel has become a thing of the system provides only the most basic services, all others are on the outside of the kernel. For example, the kernel retain only multi-process scheduling, multi-process communication and other services. Other system services and even peripheral drivers are on the user states to achieve.
(2), microkernel advantages:
High security, high reliability, high scalability, maintainability, support for distributed computing.
2, Ark compiler
The vast majority of Android applications are written using the Java language, but the CPU can only understand assembly instructions, and therefore requires a Java virtual machine to convert high-level language into machine language can understand, but there is a VM could cause the program to run even slower card Dayton .
(1), Huawei compiler biggest advantage:
By Ark compilers, application developers before downloading has been transformed into machine code that can be recognized, and thus can be quickly installed on the phone, get up and running, without having to re-compiled VM.
To some extent, Ark compiler is compiled into the application development process early stage , thus significantly reducing the burden of running smart phones and operating systems.
Huawei has officially released for the global App Gallery Connect service, covering " Creativity - Development - Distribution - Operations - Analysis of " the whole process services to help developers whole process efficient operations. At the same time, "Yao Star Program," a comprehensive upgrade, encouraging resources to $ 1 billion from one billion yuan, and fully into the global developer from the Chinese market, with industry-leading ecosystem partners to build alliances incentive, motivation and support global development by innovation. To help developers better idea on the floor the whole scene Huawei equipment, Huawei will increase support for developers, offers a variety of toolkits, more open platform capabilities.
Mobile chip, Kirin platform will be open three major capabilities:
1, through multimedia convergence capabilities open, Kirin short video platform can help application developers and creative floor;
2, fusion perception open, allowing APP smarter, know better user;
3, open AI computing power, so Pratt & Whitney developed into AI may.
In order to accelerate the development of the wisdom of non-mobile devices, enhance the user experience in different scenarios, Huawei launched HiLink & LiteOS & chips three-piece tool, from the open end cloud business platform, operating system to the chip, end-to IoT industry dilemma, let IoT development easier and more efficient.
HiLink open platform implements all IoT devices automatically discover, simple connection, once access, multi-terminal multi-mode control and, ultimately, multi-device scenarios intelligent interaction of the ultimate experience .
LiteOS is a bridge IoT applications and hardware . Unique lightweight IoT side development programming framework Maple JS, operating performance close to the C language, so developers do not need to be bette rapid development. Combined with the chip and the whole scene Hass HUAWEI LiteOS Peak, swan, etc., we will provide developers with intelligent devices underlying technology optimization.
Fifth, developing opportunities and challenges
Operating system industry has three major trends:
1, open-source development to attract
2, an integrated hardware and software platform
3, eco-oriented
Hong Meng systems already open source, but also to open up mobile phones, computers and other hardware is compatible with all Android Web applications, to achieve the integration of hardware and software platform is based.
The most important is the third article, ecology-oriented , for the just-released OS obscurity, the rapid establishment of ecological is currently the biggest challenge, which will also determine how far can obscurity.
Huawei can expect rapid development, continue to tackle tough, to the summit.
