The Linux Kernel was started by Linus Torvalds in 1991 and represents the core nucleus of Linux based operating systems. It acts as a bridge between the data processing done at the hardware level of computers and applications which users use. If new hardware is available, support in the Linux Kernel is often needed before applications can make use of this new technology.
