 | AcadOS www.cs.uiowa.edu/~jones/acados
Academic Operating System, goals: to expose students to more modern ideas than older OSs, to basic OS mechanisms, to OS and language design and prototyping; old version, ideas for new microkernel version. |
|
| Amateur OS: AMOS scottie.20m.com
Scott Billingsley's OS: realtime for DSP and amateur radio, one user/application, 16-bit real mode, for i386+, FAT 12/16; no TSRs, library of routines to program into apps, minimal kernel support (minimize interrupts), written in NASM assembly and Sphnix C--. |
|
| Kaneton Microkernel www.kaneton.org
Goal: provide all students need to learn OS concepts: basic functions, kernel internals, microkernel architecture, to advanced distributed concepts, and to develop theirs, step by step. |
|
| KOS kos.enix.org
Kid Operating System. Modular (run-time dynamic linking), preemptive multitasking, to have SVR4-like VM. Begun 1998 by young programmers, most of them students. Goal: not obtaining OS, but learning OS internals and functioning of x86 processors. Downloads, links, documentation. [Open Source, GPL] |
|
| MikeOS mikeos.berlios.de
Tool to learn: how simple OSs work, OS development, x86 assembly language; simple code, ample documentation, often add new features on request. Open source. |
