    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_operating_system

    A network operating system (NOS) is a specialized operating system for a network device such as a router, switch or firewall.. Historically operating systems with networking capabilities were described as network operating systems, because they allowed personal computers (PCs) to participate in computer networks and shared file and printer access within a local area network (LAN).

    Network operating systems (NOSs) are operating systems that provide support for computer networking in addition to traditional hardware support. These were an important sub-class of conventional operating systems from the 1980s into the 1990s during the introduction of the early local area network (LAN) systems. As personal computers grew in ...

    Operating system development may come from entirely new concepts, or may commence by modeling an existing operating system. In either case, the hobbyist is her/his own developer, or may interact with a small and sometimes unstructured group of individuals who have like interests. Examples of hobby operating systems include Syllable and TempleOS.

    In contrast to other operating systems with similarly low memory use (such as TinyOS or Contiki), RIOT allows application software programming with the programming languages C and C++, and Rust, [6] also by an experimental application programming interface . [7] It has full multithreading and real-time abilities. [8]

    As another example, the GNU/Linux naming controversy is, in part, due to disagreement about the relationship between the Linux kernel and the operating systems built over this kernel. In some types of embedded systems , the application software and the operating system software may be indistinguishable from the user, as in the case of software ...
