Seriously though, some of the biggest operating systems (my research area, OS virtualization in specific) advances have come out of Microsoft Research and Windows kernel development.
- rbanffy 16y ago> some of the biggest operating systems (...) have come out of Microsoft Research and Windows kernel development Care to list them?
- Locke1689 16y agoI can list some. The Xen paper was done between Cambridge and MSR Cambridge. http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=502034.502053&coll=DL&dl=GUIDE&CFID=3001604&CFTOKEN=97085091 http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=502034.502053&coll... http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=233269.233330&coll=DL&dl=GUIDE&CFID=3001604&CFTOKEN=97085091 http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=233269.233330&coll... http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=945445.945474&coll=DL&dl=GUIDE&CFID=3001604&CFTOKEN=97085091 http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=945445.945474&coll... http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/dryad/ http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/dryad/ is fucking cool if you're familiar with MapReduce. There are a handful of IPDPS papers I also know of but can't grab because I'm off campus and my VPN to Northwestern is acting wonky.
- rbanffy 16y agoThank you. Those are very interesting reads. It's been a long time since I played with really cutting-edge OS concepts and virtualization has never been my main interest (I was into hardware during college).
