MemOS

MemOS is an experimental operating system and runtime built around the concept of memory-centric computing, where memory objects are first-class citizens and program execution is organized around efficient, persistent memory access rather than traditional process and file system boundaries. The project explores rethinking system abstractions by tightly coupling computation with memory objects so that programs can operate on large datasets without expensive serialization or context switching. It aims to support advanced workflows like persistent in-memory data structures, crash-resilient state handling, and seamless sharing of data across tasks without copying. By abandoning some of the historical assumptions of Unix-style operating systems, MemOS attempts to unlock new performance and scalability tradeoffs for applications that need high throughput and low latency on memory-intensive workloads.
