Minimum or maximum? 
The general gist of it is that the kernel is the bit of the operating
system that means the rest of it doesn't need to know exactly which
bits of hardware it is running on, since the kernel presents a uniform
and standard interface. It also simplifies (and sometimes hides) common
low-level tasks so they don't need to be reimplemented by applications.
The proper scope of a kernel is open to some debate.
