 full access to the hardware and system resources and runs code in a protected memory area. It consists of executive

 Instead, XT architecture integrates a hardware specific code with the kernel. The user mode is made up of subsystems
 and it has been designed to run applications written for many different types of operating systems. This allows to
 implement any environment subsystem to support applications that are strictly written to the corresponding standard
