Review of Other Operating Systems


This page is under constant construction.
Please help me enrich it, by sending annotations to existing pointers, new pointers, and the usual feedback.

Please tell me about any other interesting pointer you know, that may relate somehow (anyhow) to the Tunes project...


Contents

This index favors original and research operating systems.

  • Original OS Projects, that try to go beyond traditional system design.
  • Unix akins and alikes, that try to perpetrate, with local enhancements, the traditional OS bloat.
  • Commercial systems, that can be traditional or not, but embody the what is available to the common of mortal men.

  • OS Related pointers

    Of course, do not forget languages that are another side of computing systems.


    Original OS Projects


    Unix akins and likes


    Commercial OSes


    OS Related Pointers

  • Indices about OSes and related subjects:

  • Here are pointers to packages for distributed/parallel computing:
  • Here are pointers to threads packages:
  • Here are some research laboratories interested in operating systems (send me more addresses):
  • Other OS-related pages


    More netsurfing

  • The Tunes project that hosts this page may interest you, or
  • this collection of FTP addresses, or
  • Yahoo the WWW directory.

    And remember, the "OS" side is only one side of the medal. Also look at the Language side.


    To Do on this page

  • Actually review these OSes, do not merely point to them. Gasp.
  • Talk about the open development model, as used in Linux.
  • Add pointers to Sprite, Choices and Pegasus, as well as to all pages pointed in various OS indexes...
  • Send a note to all the OS pages that do not cite us, as well as to Yahoo.
  • Add these bibliographic pointers from the OS FAQ: Checkpointing, cstr, German Bib, Arizonian Bib, bibliographies, UFS 93.
  • Add these OS FTP pointers from the OS FAQ: Clouds, Cronus, Guide, Horus, Isis (also here), X kernel.
  • FTP sites with OS-related stuff: in France, England, Taiwan.
  • Find out more about STAPLE, a persistent lazy-functional-language based project (FTP).
