Proceedings of the 2nd annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques - SIGGRAPH '75, 1975
Stand alone graphic systems and time-shared graphics provide different benefits to a user. The same is true of refresh graphics and storage displays. An operating system is described which supports these combined modes through the integration of graphics into the operating system.

The enormous consumer market for IBM PCs and compatibles has made them affordable. Now, with a free operating system called Linux, these inexpensive machines can be converted into powerful workstations for teaching, research and software development. For professionals who use Unix-based workstations at work, Linux permits virtually identical working ...

Proceedings of the 7th workshop on ACM SIGOPS European workshop Systems support for worldwide applications - EW 7, 1996
We introduce server operating systems, which are sets of abstractions and runtime support for specialized, high-performance server applications. We have designed and are implementing a prototype server OS with support for aggressive specialization, direct device-to-device access, an event-driven organization, and dynamic compiler-assisted ILP.

An operating system accelerator
Journal of Systems Architecture, 1998A RISC-style hardware accelerator for operating systems (OS), named the mechanism of multiprocessing (MMP) processor, is presented. The MMP processor implements the set of MMP primitives of the MMP mechanism with which the ES operating was enhanced. The architecture and organisation of this processor were devised to facilitate fast execution of the MMP

The basic software for all newer computers is built on the well-established need for standard operating systems. This implies that all applications—no matter how large, complex or time consuming—must operate under (or, more precisely, on top of) the standard system. Large applications require supervisory monitors which handle problems similar

AbstractThis paper is an overview of the Trio system which enables users to simultaneously develop and execute programs at three terminals. The system consists of an operating system written in Concurrent Pascal and a set of standard programs written in Sequential Pascal. The system has been used on a PDP 11/55 minicomputer since spring 1979. This work

Proceedings of the 1990 ACM SIGSMALL/PC symposium on Small systems - SIGSMALL '90, 1990
A multitasking operating system for an IBM PC or compatible has been developed to provide students with an educational opportunity for hands-on experience with concurrent programming concepts. The operating system includes features which permit users to observe performance as a function of the I/O versus compute bound processes.

The explainable operating system
2005Contemporary operating systems still appear as huge monolithic objects. Each attempt to explain one of them's architecture typically results in the tedious enumeration of a large number of mutually depending features. To overcome that situation, a discipline on system architecture should be established aimed at the provision of understandable ...

An overview of the current and future positions with respect to operating system performance is given. While a great deal of information and a large number of models for subsystems have been developed, gaps still exist in our knowledge. Because of the severe interactions between the various subsystems of an operating system, an overall model of the ...

Are operating systems at RISC?
2005A new generation of high speed microprocessors has become the standard in a number of workstation environments. The technology, RISC, has made high speed processing a reality at a relatively low price. The basic design goal of the RISC is aimed at higher speed execution of application programs and was based on an analysis of volumes of such code. It is
