Description:
Within the framework of the ESE section, FenixOS, a new research operating system is being implemented. The operating system aims at being a production grade operating system for current and future multi- and many-core processors. Current operating systems are based on design principles established in the 60s when computers were different from how they are today. In FenixOS, all these design principles are being revisited. To this end, many different design points are being investigated.
A new compositing window manager is being developed for FenixOS. The window manager is the part of the system software that renders the appearance of windows and other GUI elements. The project involves developing parts of the window manager.
