One of my favorite features of Plan 9 is the extremely powerful filesystem abstraction through the 9p file protocol.
It is incredible how clean becomes the design of the applications and the communication between the modules with a simple file interface. Currently I'm working on potential extension of this idea - an ontology-based virtual filesystem, where the files are replaced by objects and the organization is defined by relations, instead of the hierarchical structures.

I've seen a lot of papers about it, and some experiments done at university. https://code.google.com/p/diod/wiki/protocol#Sample_Session https://code.google.com/p/diod/wiki/protocol#Sample_Session http://graverobbers.blogspot.com/2007/08/v9fs-performance-versus-nfs.html http://graverobbers.blogspot.com/2007/08/v9fs-performance-ve... http://9p.cat-v.org/implementations http://9p.cat-v.org/implementations
