Title: Decentralized Operating System Post by: MCRyan on May 23, 2014, 04:43:38 PM Has anyone thought about something like this? Anyone currently working on this? I am curious to hear the pieces you all might think goes into something like a decentralized OS.

People probably have thought about decentralised operating systems, but probably only people who don't know how an operating system works.

I guess OP though about it too..! it would be nice if he had asked about a Open Source Operating system which we have in form of Linux..!People probably have thought about decentralised operating systems, but probably only people who don't know how an operating system works.

I am curious to hear the pieces you all might think goes into something like a decentralized OS. How is it supposed to work? File system in one computer, drivers on another, network management on a 3rd machine? :D Do you perhaps mean decentralized filesystem or sharing cpu/gpu power? yes this stuff exists. For example, HDFS. Title: Re: Decentralized Operating System Post by: b!z on May 25, 2014, 03:24:59 PM Quote Has anyone thought about something like this? Anyone currently working on this?

You can make it open source though.
