What are the key system calls / features that you need OS/R to support? Examples: exit, read, write, open, close, link, unlink, chdir, time, chmod, clone, uname, execv, etc. (EXPRESS) (TG) (DEGAS) (D-TEC) (DynAX) (X-TUNE) (GVR) (CORVETTE) SLEEC (PIPER)
Does your project implement it's own lightweight thread package, or does it rely on the threads provided by the OS/R? If you implement your own threads, what are the key features that required developing a new implementation? If you don't implement your own thread package, what are the key performance characteristics and APIs needed to support your project? (EXPRESS) (TG) (DEGAS) (D-TEC) (DynAX) (X-TUNE) (GVR) (CORVETTE) N/A (PIPER)
Do you currently view virtualization as a key requirement to support your x-stack project? If so, why? (EXPRESS) (TG) (DEGAS) (D-TEC) (DynAX) (X-TUNE) (GVR) (CORVETTE) N/A (PIPER)
What energy/power and reliability APIs do you expect from the OS/R? (EXPRESS) (TG) (DEGAS) (D-TEC) (DynAX) (X-TUNE) (GVR) (CORVETTE) N/A (PIPER)
Please describe how parallel programs are "composed" within your project, and what APIs and support is required from the OS/R? (EXPRESS) (TG) (DEGAS) (D-TEC) (DynAX) (X-TUNE) (GVR) (CORVETTE) N/A (PIPER)
What is your model for extreme-scale I/O, and how do you expect the OS/R to support your plans? (EXPRESS) (TG) (DEGAS) (D-TEC) (DynAX) (X-TUNE) (GVR) (CORVETTE) N/A (PIPER)
Does your project include support for multiple, hierarchical, memory regions? If so, how will it be allocated and managed, by your xstack project or my the OS/R? What APIs do you expect the OS/R to support complex and deep memory? (EXPRESS) (TG) (DEGAS) (D-TEC) (DynAX) (X-TUNE) (GVR) (CORVETTE) N/A (PIPER)
