I often tell interns who are looking for interesting project ideas to simply look back into our own past. Almost all the really interesting and cool research activities where operating systems are concerned seems to have happened between the years of 1970-1990. Sprite, Plan 9, Mach (hey, file space name servers anyone?), Domain OS, all kinds of neat ideas that sadly died or were forgotten in the name of consolidation, performance and expedience. Indeed, the performance of some of those concepts was actually rather woeful when 4MB of memory and 1MIP were all you one to work with. Maybe now that we have more hardware horsepower than we almost know what to do with, it’s time for some of those ideas to enjoy a renaissance? Sounds like a good EuroBSDCon or BSDCan talk. :-) >> >> Plan9 is alive and well! Well, at least used by a small but >> a diverse group of people!
