Thanks Espen
Here is a couple of links you might find interesting:
the Fiasco µ-kernel[^]

L4 microkernel family[^]

Fiasco is an implmentation of the L4 architecture. It's fairly small, with lot's of interesting features.

Get hold of a couple of Andrew S. Tanenbaums' books[^] - compared to most authors on this topic, his books are actually worth reading :)

Good luck!

Best regards
Espen Harlinn

Thank you, SAKryukov!
Contact to Bil Gates..... Its funny. If you create OS try to update in Open source OS. like Ubantu or Linux.

I think you should find something else for a school project that's within your skill level. Writing an OS is not a trivial task, and unless you come up with a killer file system, it won't be all that and a bag of chips.

Please try Silberschatz Galvin, “Operating System Concepts” book first.

Read some books on programming, then read some more. Meanwhile get some experience with actually coding. Then get a team of skilled programmers (a couple of 100 should do), make a great concept with new idea's etc. Make a design, settle on which programming language(s) to use and support, study already existing OS's... Oh yeah, try getting a budget of some millions of $'s. I think your final year may also take longer then a year... Good luck! :)

Utterly hilarious, if a little impressive in the delusions of grandeur. No person can write a useful OS by themselves, not today. It's sure as hell not a beginner project, or something that anyone sufficiently inexperienced to ask that question, should be attempting.
