Talk[edit]

Oh thats sad. Some of my favorite research papers were based on Eros. RIP. I hate how cool grad projects just loose the drive, loose the initiative over time. Its sad. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.250.120.197 (talk • contribs) 04:50, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

Not to worry. The reports of our demise were exaggerated. EROS has two successor systems, both of which look like they will see real commercial use. The Strawberry Group (Charlie Landau et al.) is building on the EROS work under the name CapROS (see [1]). The other successor is Coyotos (see [2]), which is correcting some of the architectural deficiencies that we found in EROS. --shap 03:36, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The internal-link which it is referred for to 486 processor article and 386 processor article, mistake. It is being linked with each of the articles of A.D. 486 and A.D. 386. Its correct link with each of rightIntel 80486 and Intel 80386.--61.125.222.70 (talk) 08:05, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

“Safety”?[edit]

The term “safety” is used repeatedly, in a specific technical sense, with no definition. -Ahruman (talk) 13:33, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Possible grammatical mistake?[edit]

I was reading the article and I *THINK* I may have spotted a grammatical mistake. The line now reads:

EROS is purely a research operating system, and was never deployed in real world use.

Shouldn't it read

EROS is purely a research operating system, and was never deployed for real world use.? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rricci428 (talk • contribs) 04:03, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

SDS Sigma 7 a capability-based system?[edit]

The article says

The SDS Sigma 7 was a hardware-based capability system originally designed for use in telephony switches.

but, as far as I know, the SDS Sigma series was 1) not capability-based and 2) not originally designed for use in telephony switches.

Perhaps this was intended to refer to the Plessey System 250, which was 1) capability-based and 2) designed for use in telephony switches.

(I'd just change it, but Shapiro himself made that edit, so I won't assume he was mistaken.) Guy Harris (talk) 02:22, 17 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
