The operating system [PDF]

open access: possibleProceedings of the Seventh Workshop on Programming Languages and Operating Systems, 2013
Operating systems and programming languages are often informally evaluated on their conduciveness towards composition. We revisit Dan Ingalls' Smalltalk-inspired position that "an operating system is a collection of things that don't fit inside a language; there shouldn't be one", discussing what it means, why it appears not to have materialised, and ...

On protection in operating systems

Proceedings of the fifth symposium on Operating systems principles - SOSP '75, 1975
A model of protection mechanisms in computing systems is presented and its appropriateness is demonstrated. The “safety” problem for protection systems under our model is to determine in a given situation whether a subject can acquire a particular right to an object.

The system in operation

Proceedings of the February 11-12, 1954, western computer conference: Trends in computers: automatic control and data processing on - AIEE-IRE '53 (Western), 1954
The gentlemen who have preceded me here today have all represented what might be titled the "heroes" of the computer world; the business men of vision who can foresee the coming revolution in business data processing which the modern computer portends, the system engineer who molds this tool into usable and workable forms, and the computer designer who

The trio operating system

Software: Practice and Experience, 1980
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

Multilevel operating systems

Communications of the ACM, 1966
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

A graphics operating system

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.
