ESPRIT LTR 21917 (Pegasus II) Deliverable 4.1.3 Nemesis IIOP Implementation

ESPRIT LTR 21917 (Pegasus II) Deliverable 4.5.2: Unix functionality

Traditional operating systems present fixed, high-level abstractions to application developers and users. These are part of standard APIs, such as POSIX or X/OPEN, which are typically implemented as a thin library layer on top of monolithic kernels. Recent efforts in operating system research, however, have focussed on providing more flexibility and new functionality to applications by lowering...

Wide Area Audio Synchronisation

In this short paper we describe a Wide Area Audio Synchronisation demonstration using the Quality of Service (QoS) facilities of the Nemesis operating system. The Nemesis operating system is a result of the ESPRIT funded Pegasus I research project. A stereo audio stream is split with each channel being input to one of two distinct network digitisation devices; one of the resulting streams is se...

Linkage in the Nemesis Single Address

The recent interest in single address space operating systems has resulted in a number of papers, most of which gloss over the issues of linking programs to run in multiple protection domains. Some of the confusion about 64-bit address spaces is due to the almost pervasive use of UNIX and UNIX-like operating systems (such as Mach, Chorus and Amoeba) and languages with poor enforcement of abstra...

Deliverable 3 . 2 Interaction Models and Mixed Reality Interfaces for Inhabited Television

This Document presents the findings to date for task 3.3 from work package 3 of eRENA (ESPRIT project 25379). It continues from deliverable 3.1 on a new area of research, i.e. Inhabited Television. We begin with summarising the evolution of digital broadcast as well as justifying mixed reality’s suitability to Inhabited TV, finally describing the current implementation – eTV. Specifically, this...
