Porting Embedded XINU to Virgil
From REU@MU
Students: Max Berner, Maverick Berner
Mentor: Dr. Dennis Brylow
Project Background
The focus of the project is to create a port of the Operating System Embedded Xinu over to the programming language Virgil. Embedded Xinu is the OS used for many classes at Marquette University, including COSC 3250: Operating Systems. Embedded Xinu is a reimplementation of Xinu that has been developed under the direction of Dr. Dennis Brylow since 2006. Virgil is a fast, object-orientated programming language developed by Dr. Ben Titzer. The language can be read further here on its Github repository.
Current Objectives
- Get Virgil to compile and execute in Embedded Xinu.
