Microsoft Gazelle: a new browser

The engineers of the Microsoft Research laboratory recently published
a report on a concept called Gazelle, an application midway between
the browser and operating system. For this project, the team was
inspired by Chrome and how the Google browser assigns a new process
for each tab.

With Gazelle, researchers have developed a new architecture by
leveraging browser security that offers more control over each
resource browser. This is the kernel, the heart of the application,
which is responsible for managing communication between the various
components of the browser (eg plugins).
