What is the System Architecture for Windows Programming?

Windows NT kernel is the main system architecture in Windows Programming. This architecture is being divided into different sections as:

- NTOSKRNL.EXE: this is the kernel on which windows operating system works.

- It provides the functionality on the low level and links up with the Dynamic link library (DLL).

- HAL is included and it is known as Hardware Abstraction Layer to define the Windows programming architecture.

- It provides a low level mechanism like interrupts that allow the handling of the BIOS communication.

- The system architecture is a layered architecture that consists of HAL.dll on the bottom layer and other layers also consists of DLL files.
