Hydra (operating system)

Hydra (operating system)

HYDRA was an early capability-based, object-oriented, microkernel designed to support a wide range of possible operating systems to run on top of it.Wulf 74 pp.337-345] HYDRA was created as part of the C.mmp project at Carnegie-Mellon University in 1971 [citation
