Puts applications in control, runs 10x or more faster. Exopc and XOK versions run on x86 PCs. ExOS library gives user-level extensible implementation of Unix OS, so most applications compile and run with no change. Download. [Open Source, MIT]
Traditional OSs limit application performance, flexibility, functionality by fixing interfaces and implementations of OS abstractions such as interprocess communication and virtual memory. Exokernel address this via application-level management of phy...
Makes µnOS: 72k microkernel on 8k nanokernel client/server architecture based on OOP framework, symmetric multithreading, multitasking, priority based scheduling, fully interruptible, separated address spaces, and full memory protection. Free download.
Main idea: enforce no abstractions, rather, have them as options, to all levels of system: hardware, kernel and file services, ways users interact with system; based on exo principles. Descriptions, news. [Open Source]
