Operating Systems of the 90s and Beyond: International Workshop, Dagstuhl Castle, Germany July 8-12, 1991. Proceedings

Architectural and hardware advances in computing design are occurring at an ever quickening rate, but it is the operating system that masters the complexity of these new computing devices to make them useful tools. Operating systems can make the difference between an interesting architecture and a useful computing environment. As more complex computational structures and more powerful communication technologies become available, we are faced with the need to develop new generations of opera...
