University of California, Berkeley, designed by Thomas Anderson, and is used by numerous schools.Originally written in
C++ for
MIPS, Nachos runs as a user-process on a host operating system. A MIPS simulator executed the code for any user programs running on top of the Nachos operating system. Ports of the Nachos code exist for a variety of architectures.In addition to the Nachos code, a number of assignments are provided with the Nachos system. The goal of Nachos is to introduce students to concepts in operating system design and implementation by requiring them to implement significant pieces of functionality within the Nachos system.
