    Abstract

    Hardware and software components are suggested for enabling the creation of a self-stabilizing OS on top of an off-the-shelf, non-self-stabilizing processor. Simple "watchdog" hardware called periodic reset monitor (PRM) provides a basic solution. The solution is extended to a stabilization enabling hardware (SEH) which removes any real time requirement from the OS. A stabilization enabling system that extends the SEH with some software components provides the user (the OS designer) with a self-stabilizing processor abstraction. Adapting the current OS code to be self-stabilizing is supported using a mechanism for enforcing the software configuration.
