Whisper Systems. Android UI Design Patterns: Mutual Mobile's Android design guidelines (PDF) Return Infinity - BareMetal OS. BareMetal is a 64-bit OS for x86-64 based computers. The OS is written entirely in Assembly, while applications can be written in Assembly or C/C++. Development of the Operating System is guided by its 3 target segments: High Performance Computing - Act as the base OS for a HPC cluster node. Running advanced computation workloads is ideal for a mono-tasking Operating System.Embedded Applications - Provide a platform for embedded applications running on commodity x86-64 hardware.Education - Provide an environment for learning and experimenting with programming in x86-64 Assembly as well as Operating System fundamentals.

Current version is 0.6.1 - released August 19, 2013. BareMetal boots via Pure64 and has a command line interface with the ability to load programs/data from a hard drive. Current plans for v0.7.0 call for basic TCP/IP support, improved file handling, as well as general bug fixes and optimizations. BareMetal OS Group @ Google Groups: Visit this group. GameBoy Online. Retro Programming: Itsy-OS Kernel: Preemptive Switcher & Memory Manager. Itsy-OS v0.1 is a small 8086 operating system kernel providing two basic services: a simple preemptive task switcher and memory management. If necessary, simple IPC and task management can be added to provide the features of a traditional microkernel. Weighing in at about 380 bytes, Itsy should port well to tiny architectures. Memory Control Blocks Each block of memory is preceded by a memory control block which is 32 bytes long. The blocks of memory are arranged as a circular linked list.

The first memory control block resides in segment 050h. Task Switcher The task switcher is called by the timer interrupt. Deallocate Memory Called with DS = MCB of memory to free. Switching is disabled while the memory structure is being modified. Allocate Memory Called with AX = number of paragraphs required. Setup Simply sets up the timer interrupt. eGovernance Standards Portal — eGovernance Standards Portal. 7 release notes. 7.0 marks a huge milestone for the Webconverger browser only operating system, since the Debian base system has upgraded from "lenny" to "squeeze".

Between 6.2 to 7.0 there are several highlights such as: From Firefox 3.5.8 to 3.6.12From Splashy boot animation to PlymouthFrom Adobe Flash 10.1 to Flash 10.2Faster booting thanks to Debian Live's live-boot and live-config There has been a community discussed privacy change, whereby Webconverger 7 reports its version to a ping service. Download now and burn to CD or image to a USB stick to boot your machine to just a browser. For those who offer their clients only a webcfullscreen experience, Chrome can be used instead of Firefox. Further chrome options are not yet implemented by Google. A Google checkout alternative Paypal form is now available on the basic Webconverger customisation purchase page.
