KeyKOS

KeyKOS

KeyKOS is a persistent, pure capability-based operating system for the IBM S/370 mainframe computers. It allowed emulating the VM, MVS, and POSIX environments. It is a predecessor of the Extremely Reliable Operating System (EROS), and its successors, the CapROS and Coyotos operating systems.
