To roughly outline differences…
CoreObject is an advanced nameserver (inspired by what you can find a
micro-kernel OS, in fact CoreObject is very similar to Spring OS
nameserver) which provides three key facilities :
- interaction beetwen objects transparently across processes, hosts
and languages (like CORBA)
- unified view of the whole system (OS components, applications,
documents, contacts etc.) in term of a hierarchical objects structure
- integrated security model
CoreObject aims to fix the numerous limitations of Objective-C DO
nameserver and provides (through a single API) a very simple yet
flexible way to deal with any kind of items/objects (relying on
'distributed objets' concepts invisibly under the hood).
I am curious that whether there is any existed open source project
doing the similar thing ?
The only similar attempt I discovered is Spring OS (which isn't open
source).
It's not unlikely they are some research project exploring similar
trends, though I'm not aware of any open source project closely
following a such model.
Hurd or Plan 9 are based on related ideas but still quite different.
Otherwise K42 or Isaac OS may share some of these features, but I
don't really know.
K42 : <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K42>
Isaac : <http://isaacos.loria.fr/>
Here is a paper related to K42/Tornado I haven't read : <http://
