PURE: Design Rationale of the PURE Object-Oriented Embedded Operating System
Project goal: provide a portable, universal runtime executive for deeply embedded parallel distributed systems. Deeply embedded means systems that have extreme resource constraints in memory, CPU, and power use. [ResearchIndex]

A Persistent System in Real Use: Experiences of the First 13 Years
Eumel and successor L3, OSs made by GMD, have been used for 13 and 4 years respectively, for production in business, education. Over 2000 Eumel, 500 L3 have shipped since 1979, 1988. Both rely on persistence, with fault-surviving. Description, links. [Re

Verifying Operating System Security
A confined program is one unable to leak information to an unauthorized party or modify unauthorized resources, an essential feature of any secure component based system. A proof of correctness of EROS architecture for confinement. [ResearchIndex]

EROS: A Fast Capability System
This capability-based OS for commodity processors uses a one level storage model; store persistence is transparent to applications. Surprisingly, performance of this very high security system matches normal OSs. [ResearchIndex]

Harmony as an Object-Oriented Operating System
Ion is a key concept in the design of Harmony programs. The only interface to a task instance, once created, is message passing. Access from the outside is permitted only when a task explicitly performs a Receive operation.

Exokernel: An Operating System Architecture for Application-Level Resource Management
Traditional OSs limit application performance, flexibility, functionality by fixing interfaces and implementations of OS abstractions such as interprocess communication and virtual memory. Exokernel address this via application-level management of physic

Latexmk
Perl script to automatically run latex and related commands. It may also start a previewer and then run latex whenever the source files are updated, so that the previewer gives an up-to-date view of the document.
