title = "Experience with chorus",
abstract = "This paper summarizes works done at I.N.T. with Chorus 1 Operating System. It briefly describes Chorus' concepts and abstractions useful to understand our work. Then it focuses on Chorus micro-kernel capabilities and explains how these capabilities have been used to make an experiment allowing the cohabitation between the Chorus micro-kernel and the Macintosh Operating system. Then, it describes how a new subsystem can be built over the microkernel. As an example, it shows how a subsystem which emulates the Macintosh Operating System has been built. Then, it explains how new capabilities can be integrated into an existing subsystem. To illustrate this point, it gives two examples of work we are currently doing on Chorus/MiX running on PCs. The first project adds “Quality of Service” support for distributed multimedia applications; the second one allows “Fault Tolerant” aspects to be taken into account in distributed applications. Finally, we discuss some limitations of Chorus, especially in supporting large networks, and how the system should be extended to address this new feature.",
