+Programmable Modules
+--------------------
+
+Core layer of DAMON is implemented as a framework, and exposes its application
+programming interface to all kernel space components such as subsystems and
+modules.  For common use cases of DAMON, DAMON subsystem provides kernel
+modules that built on top of the core layer using the API, which can be easily
+used by the user space end users.
