We suggest that the conventional course on operating systems, based --- apparently --- on folk memory of an archetypal operating system, could usefully be reorganised to emphasise the importance of the people who use the system, and comment on our experience in designing and presenting such a course. | |
20 Citations | The results indicate some trends for wearable operating systems. |
We show that these ideas are transferrable to operating systems. | |
This eliminates hardware and operating system issues thus allowing people with different hardware and heterogeneous operating systems to collaborate and code with ease. | |
The interface may be applied as an overlay to virtually any operating system. | |
01 May 1993 108 Citations | This kind of model can be used as an interface between the user and the computer, for overview and control of applications, file systems, networks and other computer resources, as well as for communication and collaboration with other users in the networked environment. |
It supports portable operating system interface (POSIX) semantics, and provides high bandwidth, low latency, and huge storage capacity. | |
01 Mar 2008 | Our operating systems and programming abstractions should be expanded to let applications tap into these computational resources and make the best use of them. |
06 Nov 2005 | We propose an operating system interface that can be used by applications to achieve energy savings. |
Over time, these developments could affect what constitutes an operating system, what its roles and responsibilities will be, and how it will be installed and used. | |
01 Jan 2000 | By separating aspects and components of the operating systems in every layer, we can provide a better generic design model of the operating systems. |
31 Citations | The interface-design models used in these mechanical systems play similar roles in computer systems, despite the obvious differences between the two types of systems. |
10 Apr 2011 | It also routes system calls of an application among operating systems, to provide applications with the illusion of running on a single operating system. |
The techniques used can be extended to other operating systems. | |
Recent evidence suggests that trends will require rethinking the traditional role of operating systems. |
