If philosophy is the art of forming questions, this article is pure philosophy.
I am trying to think like the author.
Buy I don't know why virtual memory is separable from memory protection: one necessitates the other.
Aren't call stacks data structures in the same way as lists? What's special about arrays as you can find equivalence between this idea.
The first job is to understand taxonomic distinctions between ideas, but there's no consideration of taxonomic equivalence. For example you can derive one good idea from a combination of others.
For example, I'll add for no:
- Interrupts/Events/Signals
- Caches
Are these subsumed by processes?
When does a loop rise to the status of a process?
Is I/O a good idea, or intrinsic?
To me the question of goodness should expand to add truth and beauty, then a new academe of philosophical computing can be launched.
