Abstract :
SeaOS is a simple operating system developed for fast prototyping of research concepts. SeaOS implements a POSIX-like interface in less than 30,000 lines of C kernel code. Its userspace is complete enough to be self-hosting and includes ports of gcc, bash, grub, binutils, and coreutils. SeaOS runs on modern x86 and x86_64 architectures and is designed to support our lab´s operating system research in scheduling, virtualization and security architectures.
