nit:
project oberon, though in many ways related, is by wirth.
you were probably thinking of alef (the early csp language) on plan9 (the bell-labs' research unix successor).
limbo and its os/vm inferno were an attempt to commercialise those ideas amid the java craze.

Inferno is Plan 9's successor, and Limbo embodies the ideas that Alef failed to deliver, replaced by a C based library instead. Regardless if Inferno and Limbo were a way to fight against Java based OSes, they failed in the market.
