Apertos
- Object-oriented reflective OS, from Sony Computer Science Lab.
Atomatrix
- Multithreaded execution system of atomic matrices with dynamic compiler, a network environment, and an object-oriented OS. Open source, BSD.
Choices Object-Oriented Operating System
- Research OS coded in C++, architecture organized as frameworks of objects hierarchically classed by function, performance; customized by replacing subframeworks, objects; application interface is kernel objects exported via application/kernel protection layer; kernel and application objects examined via application browsers; runs on bare hardware on distributed and parallel computers. Virtual Choices (VChoices) also runs under Unix System V.
Iguana Project
- Investigating use of object-orientation, computational reflection, and metaobject protocols (MOPs) to support dynamic customizing of (system) software.
MK++
- Mach compatible microkernel; gives one code base able to support high assurance, scalability, realtime, distribution, SMP, fault handling, performance; all built in an object-oriented B3 evaluable fashion.
Maruti
- Goal: create an environment for developing and deploying critical applications with hard real-time constraints in a reactive environment. Such applications must be able to execute on a platform of distributed and heterogeneous resources, and operate continuously in the presence of faults.
Renaissance
- Multiprocessor OO OS purely designed and implemented in object-oriented techniques, to give application programs transparent access to system and remote objects distributed in a network of machines. OO programming is an ideal approach for building distributed systems. Runs on Sun SPARC, Encore Multimax multiprocessor.
ShagOS
- Portable object-oriented microkernel OS, dynamically loaded device drivers, fully redesigned and rewritten many times in C++, runs on VAX, x86. Ongoing experiment in using O-O paradigm as framework for full OS, with distributed computing as main aspect in most design decisions.
Tornado
- Object-oriented operating system for large-scale shared-memory multiprocessors. Minimizes data sharing via careful design: often eliminates data sharing even when sharing appears natural. Successor to Hurricane.
