“EROS: The Extremely Reliable Operating System”

“EROS is a new operating system being implemented at the
University of Pennsylvania. The system merges some very old

and resource management. The result is a small, secure, real-time
operating system that provides orthogonal persistence.

“EROS Release 1.1. EROS is now released under GPL! For download
