OLAT

OLAT is the acronym for Online Learning And Training. It is a web application - a Learning Management System - that supports any kind of online learning, teaching, and tutoring with little didactical restrictions. OLAT is free software/open source, and has been developed since 1999 at the University ... [More] of Zürich and won the MeDiDa-Prix in the year 2000. OLAT has support for various E-learning standards such as IMS Content Packaging, IMS Basic LTI, IMS QTI and SCORM. OLAT offers all the tools that you'd expect of a modern LMS like Wiki, Chat, Forum, Calendar, Cluster, AJAX-support etc. OLAt is used all over the world and has been translated into 30 languages. A packaged deployment (WAR) consistent with the Java Web Specification simplifies the rollout of the application. [Less]

ILIAS

ILIAS is a powerful web-based learning management system that allows users to create, edit and publish learning and teaching material in an integrated system with their normal web browsers. Tools for cooperative working and communication are included as well. ILIAS is available as open source ... [More] software under the GNU General Public License (GPL). Universities, educational institutions, private and public companies, and every interested person may use the system free of charge and contribute to its further development. It has been certified for being compliant to SCORM 1.2 RTE Level 3 and SCORM 2004 3rd Edition. [Less]

Flourish — PHP Unframework

Flourish is a PHP unframework — a general-purpose, object-oriented library. It's architecture is modular and thus not strictly MVC. It focuses on being secure, broadly compatible, portable, well documented and easy to use. You will find Flourish useful if you need to write code that is any ... [More] of the following: - Secure - Consistent and easy to understand - Needs to effortlessly model simple or complex databases, especially existing schemas - Works with international data - Can perform accurate math calculations - Easily manipulates images - Able to run on different databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, MSSQL, Oracle, DB2) - Can be used on closed-source projects - Works with PHP 5.1+ - Might need an architecture other than MVC - Plays nicely with other libraries and frameworks [Less]

Plan 9 from Bell Labs

Plan 9 from Bell Labs is a research system developed at Bell Labs starting in the late 1980s. Its original designers and authors were Ken Thompson, Rob Pike, Dave Presotto, and Phil Winterbottom. They were joined by many others as development continued throughout the 1990s to the present. Plan 9 ... [More] demonstrates a new and often cleaner way to solve most systems problems. The system as a whole is likely to feel tantalizingly familiar to Unix users but at the same time quite foreign. In Plan 9, each process has its own mutable name space. A process may rearrange, add to, and remove from its own name space without affecting the name spaces of unrelated processes. Included in the name space mutations is the ability to mount a connection to a file server speaking 9P, a simple file protocol. [Less]

mksh

mksh is the MirBSD Korn Shell, largely similar to the original AT&T ksh, pdksh’s actively developed successor, portable. It includes bug fixes and improvements in order to produce a modern, robust shell good for interactive and especially script use. It has UTF-8 support and extended ... [More] compatibility to other modern shells. mksh compiles on: MirOS gcc3+pcc+SUNWcc, MidnightBSD gcc3+pcc; BSD/OS gcc1+2; DragonFly,Free/Net/OpenBSD gcc3+4; AIX gcc4+xlC9; DEC OSF/1 v2,ULTRIX 4.5 MIPS, Tru64 4/5.1 CompaqC+gcc2; HP-UX PA-RISC/IA64 gcc3+aCC; IRIX gcc3+MIPSpro; MacOSX,iPhone gcc3/4+llvm-gcc; QNX; Solaris 8/10 gcc3+SUNWcc; Interix gcc+msc; Cygwin gcc; UWIN-NT dmc+msc+Borland; GNU/Linux/kFreeBSD/HURD dietlibc+libc5+µClibc gcc2/3/4+icc+llvm-gcc+nwcc+tcc+TenDRA+llvm-clang; Haiku gcc; Minix3; Android; … [Less]

Inferno Distributed Operating System

Inferno® is a distributed operating system, originally developed at Bell Labs, but now developed and maintained by Vita Nuova® as Free Software. Applications written in Inferno's concurrent programming language, Limbo, are compiled to its portable virtual machine code (Dis), to run anywhere on ... [More] a network in the portable environment that Inferno provides. Unusually, that environment looks and acts like a complete operating system. The use of a high-level language and virtual machine is sensible but mundane. The interesting thing is the system's representation of services and resources. They are represented in a file-like name hiearchy. Programs access them using only the file operations open, read/write, and close. The 'files' may of course represent stored data, but may also be devices, network and protocol interfaces, dynamic data sources, and services. The approach unifies and provides basic naming, structuring, and access control mechanisms for all system resources. A single file-service protocol (called Styx or 9P2000) makes all those resources available for import or export throughout the network in a uniform way, independent of location. An application simply attaches the resources it needs to its own per-process name hierarchy ('name space'). The system can be used to build portable client and server applications. It makes it straightforward to build lean applications that share all manner of resources over a network, without the cruft of much of the 'Grid' software one sees. Inferno can run 'native' on various ARM, PowerPC, SPARC and x86 platforms but also 'hosted', under an existing operating system (including FreeBSD, Irix, Linux, MacOS X, Plan 9, and Solaris), again on various processor types.

OpenOLAT

OpenOLAT is a learning management system written in Java. OpenOLAT has been forked out of the OLAT project because we do no longer believe in the openness of the original project. OpenOLAT is used by universities, schools and companies to deliver e-learning content, to do testing and assessment and ... [More] to work collaboratively in various learning scenarios. [Less]

acme-sac

Acme is a programmer's text editor, shell, and user interface. It runs on a virtualized operating system, Inferno, that runs hosted on Windows, Linux, Solaris, and MacOSX.
