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, 1975A 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.

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

Proceedings of the 16th Workshop on Hot Topics in Operating Systems, 2017
If large-scale quantum computers become commonplace, the operating system will have to provide novel abstractions to capture the power of this bizarre new hardware. In this paper, we consider this and other systems-level issues that quantum computers would raise, and we demonstrate that these machines would offer surprising speed-ups for a number of ...

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

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.

Proceedings of the ACM SIGOPS 22nd symposium on Operating systems principles, 2009
Applications must be able to synchronize accesses to operating system resources in order to ensure correctness in the face of concurrency and system failures. System transactions allow the programmer to specify updates to heterogeneous system resources with the OS guaranteeing atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability (ACID).

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 ...
