Hello I got the impression? that MSP430 have goo chances to be an MPU in future hardware design. I've recently found what open-source OS - COntiki (maybe more than one) available for this platform. From paper [2] I understand that Contiki have event based kernel, sounds good for MPU job and possibility to update/download new programs during runtime (there is also possibility to replace the kernel to).
The question: Is it possible or desirable to have a such "full" OS on MPU? P.S . I'm a nonprogrammer so _can_ speak absolutely nonsense.
