kernel
Also known as operating system kernel, OS kernel
core of a computer operating system
AI overview
A kernel is the core part of an operating system that manages the most fundamental tasks, like controlling hardware devices and allocating computer resources to different programs. It matters because without a kernel working behind the scenes, your computer couldn't coordinate between its physical components and the software you want to run.
