Title: Η Στοά των άγνωστων Λειτουργικών Συστημάτων Post by: pmousoul on November 21, 2010, 07:21:38 am Ότι λέει και ο τίτλος.. και ξεκινώ με ένα που ανακάλυψα πριν λίγο, τυχαία μέσω youtube! http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plan_9_from_Bell_Labs Μπορεί να είναι unix-type.. αλλά έχει κάποια δικά του χαρακτηριστικά.. επίσης από wikipedia μου έκαναν εντύπωση τα εξής : Overview Plan 9 from Bell Labs was developed by members of the Computing Science Research Center at Bell Labs, the same group that developed UNIX and C. [4] The Plan 9 team was originally led by Rob Pike, Ken Thompson, Dave Presotto and Phil Winterbottom with support from Dennis Ritchie as head of the Computing Techniques Research Department. Over the years many notable developers have contributed to the project including Brian Kernighan, Tom Duff, Doug McIlroy, Bjarne Stroustrup, Bruce Ellis, Steve Simon and others. [5] Plan 9 was engineered for modern distributed environments, designed from the start to be a networked operating system. It has graphics built-in, unlike Unix, which added these features to the design later. Plan 9 has yet to become as popular as Unix derivatives, but it has an expanding community of developers. Plan 9 has a distributed architecture. It can be installed and used on a single self-contained system, but also has the capability to separate the functional components of the OS between separate hardware platforms. In a typical Plan 9 installation, users work at lightweight terminals running the rio GUI and connect via the network to CPU servers that handle computation-intensive processes, with permanent data storage provided by additional hosts acting as file servers and archival storage. Currently available desktop computers can also re-create this architecture internally using multiple virtual machines. |
