<p>The OS is broken into a number of layers (levels).</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>It delivers better application performance due to the few interfaces between the application program and the hardware.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>The layered structure simplifies the debugging process because each layer uses the functions of the lower level layers only, so if an error occurs during debugging, it must be on that layer only as the lower level layers have already been debugged.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>The micro-kernel structure allows for easier addition of new services without modifying the kernel, making it more secure and reliable.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>If a service fails, the rest of the operating system remains untouched because new services are added to user space and do not affect the kernel.</p> Signup and view all the answers
