Barrelfish is an experimental
multi-core processors with the goal of reducing the compounding decrease in benefit as more CPUs are used in a computer by putting low-level hardware information in a database, thus removing the need for driver software.[4][5]
The partners released the first snapshot of the OS on September 15, 2009
While originally being developed in collaboration with Microsoft Research, it is now partly supported by
