A Linux Kernel is basically the multiplexed core of the operating system. It's function is to instruct other systems from process's, memory and hardware devices on what to do and how to do it at any one given point in time when issued a command. A Kernel is compiled with 3 system levels. First one is the System Call Interface which runs basic read/write functions. Next is the Kernel Code which is the basic core anotomy of the system and is common to all processors. Last is the Arhitecture-Kernel Dependent Code which is specifically built for a processor and platform combination. The Kernel can take direction from multiple users at the same time and run stably under the harshest conditions compared to other operating systems.
