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 physica - http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/engler95exokernel.html
TUNES Project: No-Kernel - Unique description of operating systems without kernels, links. - http://cliki.tunes.org/No-Kernel
Elysium - Main idea: enforce no abstractions, rather, have them as options, to all levels of system: hardware, kernel and file services, ways users interact with system; based on exo principles. Descriptions, news. [Open Source] - http://elysium.sourceforge.net/
dr'ex - Exokernel written in C/asm for the x86 architecture. Released under GPL. - http://drex.sourceforge.net/
Miranda: SourceForge - Downloads, announcements, and a forum. Programming languages: Assembly, C, and C++. - http://sourceforge.net/projects/miranda-os/
Miranda - Planed features: Exokernel architecture, object-oriented, POSIX compliant, intuitive GUI, and best technologies: journaled main filesystems, LibOS modular library. Development documentation. [Open Source, LGPL] - http://miranda-os.sourceforge.net/
Unununium Operating Engine - Claimed as radical new approach to OSs: no-kernel, self-modifying cells (like objects); single address space, useful where memory and CPU power is low, and maybe for AI. Written in self-modifying, modular assembly language. [Open Source, BSD] - http://uuu.sourceforge.net/
miray Software - Makes µnOS: 72k microkernel on 8k nanokernel client/server architecture based on OOP framework, symmetric multithreading, multitasking, priority based scheduling, fully interruptible, separated address spaces, and full memory protection. Free download. - http://www.miray.de/home/
MIT Exokernel OS - Puts applications in control, runs 10x or more faster. Exopc and XOK versions run on x86 PCs. ExOS library gives user-level extensible implementation of Unix OS, so most applications compile and run with no change. Download. [Open Source, MIT] - http://www.pdos.lcs.mit.edu/exo.html
