    7 ALMOS (Advanced Locality Management Operating System) is a research operating system currently under development at the [http://www-soc.lip6.fr/ SoC] department of the [http://www.lip6.fr/ LIP6] Laboratory ([http://www.upmc.fr UPMC Sorbonne Universités]). This new research operating system has been started from scratch and it is targeting cc-NUMA multi/many-cores. It is intended to investigate the scalability of the different components of an operating system on a current and future many-cores.

    99ALMOS is currently used in several research projects and Master degree courses at LIP6 and UPMC. Its development is currently a work-package in the SHARP (Scalable Heterogeneous ARchitecture for Processing) MEDEA+ European project ([http://www.catrene.org/web/projects/projects_call456.php #CA109]) which is an HPC oriented project leaded by Bull. ALMOS has been originally developed as a part of the TSAR MEDEA+ European project ([http://www.catrene.org/web/downloads/profiles_medea/2A718-TSAR-profile-outMEDEA2%20%2823-6-10%29.pdf #2A718]) and its kernel allows a shared-memory parallel applications to scale up to +1024 cores on the [https://www-asim.lip6.fr/trac/tsar TSAR] (Tera-Scale ARchitecture) single-chip cc-NUMA many-core. Work is in progress to port ALMOS to AMD Opteron (Interlagos) 64-cores cc-NUMA machine.
