The Solidor project ended in january
2001. Most of the members of the Solidor project have then joined
the Aces (Ambient Computing
and Embedded Systems) project.
Since 1999, the Solidor project is located at IRISA-INRIA
Rennes and at INRIA-Rocquencourt.
This site describes the part of the project located in Rennes. Information
about the Solidor project at INRIA-Rocquencourt may be found at

Design of distributed operating systems
A distributed operating system is a set of software components managing
the execution of applications on top of a hardware platform composed
of computers connected by communication links. A distributed operating
system is complex, because it must manage ressources on a per-computer
basis and also provide system-wide ressource management. In addition,
resource management must be correct, so that the behavior of the applications
using the operating system conforms to its specification, and the
service provided by the operating systems must fit to application
needs, for instance in terms of response time, fault-tolerance and
security. Our research deals with the design of distributed operating
systems with this double objective of correction and quality of service;
this is done either by the design of new software components or the
combination of existing sofware components. The application domains
concerned by our research include multimedia applications embedded
systems, real-time systems, the Internet and mobile computing.
Research themes
- operating systems for embedded multimedia applications
- hard-real time dependable systems
