  • Modern Operating Systems for AI Agents

    Modern Operating Systems for AI Agents
    Feb 18 2026
    An operating system (OS) is the fundamental software that acts as an intermediary between computer hardware and user applications. It manages hardware resources such as the CPU, memory, storage, and input/output devices, while providing essential services like process scheduling, file management, security, and user interfaces. Without an OS, users would need to interact directly with hardware, which is impractical for most tasks. Common examples include Microsoft Windows, which focuses on graphical user interfaces and broad hardware compatibility; Linux, known for its open-source nature and use in servers; and macOS, optimized for Apple hardware with emphasis on user experience and integration. Operating systems can be monolithic (where all components run in a single kernel space, like traditional Linux) or microkernel-based (where services run in user space for better modularity and reliability, like in Minix). They also handle multitasking, allowing multiple programs to run simultaneously, and provide abstractions like virtual memory to make programming easier. I will first introduce traditional operating systems and its use in current desktops, mobile devices, and servers, and will compare them with my vision for distributed operating systems, as my proposal is MEVIA OS. The main use case is a world of AI agents (e.g. OpenClaw), more decentralized and operating 24/7, requiring then access, configuration, and communications with humans, anytime, anywhere for decision making and final touches as we free our time from being in front of our laptops. Comparing Traditional Operating Systems There are three main traditional Operating Systems: Windows, Linux, and MacOS. Their architectures are as follows: Operating Systems Architecture Windows Microsoft Windows, first released in 1985 as Windows 1.0, evolved from MS-DOS as a graphical extension to provide a user-friendly interface for personal computers. Developed by Microsoft, it quickly became the dominant OS for desktops and laptops due to its compatibility with a wide range of hardware and software. Over the decades, versions like Windows 95 introduced the Start menu and internet integration, while Windows XP (2001) emphasized stability and multimedia. Modern iterations, such as Windows 11 (2021), focus on cloud integration, AI features like Copilot, and enhanced security with features like Windows Hello. Its history reflects Microsoft's strategy of backward compatibility, ensuring legacy applications run on new versions, which has contributed to its market share exceeding 70% in desktop OS usage as of 2023. Windows operates on a hybrid kernel architecture, blending monolithic and microkernel elements for efficiency. The NT kernel, introduced in Windows NT 3.1 (1993), handles core functions like process management, memory allocation, and hardware abstraction. It runs in kernel mode for privileged operations and user mode for applications to prevent crashes from affecting the system. The OS supports multitasking through preemptive scheduling, allowing multiple processes to run concurrently. User interaction occurs via the graphical shell (Explorer.exe), with subsystems like Win32 for API calls. Security features include User Account Control (UAC) and BitLocker encryption, while updates are managed through Windows Update for ongoing improvements and patches. Kernel: Manages hardware resources, process scheduling, and memory; hybrid design for performance. Process Scheduler: Handles multitasking and priority-based execution of programs. File System (NTFS): Supports large volumes, encryption, and permissions for data management. Device Drivers: Interfaces with hardware like printers and GPUs via the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL). User Interface (GUI): Includes Desktop, Start Menu, and Taskbar for intuitive navigation. Security Subsystem: Features like Windows Defender and firewall for threat protection. Networking Stack: Manages TCP/IP, Wi-Fi, and cloud services integration. Linux Linux originated in 1991 when Linus Torvalds created a free, open-source kernel as an alternative to proprietary Unix systems. Inspired by Minix, it was released under the GNU General Public License, fostering community collaboration. Distributions (distros) like Ubuntu (2004) and Fedora bundle the kernel with tools from the GNU project, making it accessible for servers, desktops, and embedded devices. Its history highlights adaptability, powering over 90% of cloud servers and supercomputers by 2023, thanks to contributions from companies like Red Hat and Canonical. Linux's philosophy emphasizes modularity, stability, and customization, appealing to developers and enterprises. Linux uses a monolithic kernel where all core services run in kernel space for speed, though modules can be loaded dynamically. It boots via init systems like systemd, managing services and hardware detection. Processes are scheduled using algorithms like Completely Fair Scheduler (CFS) for ...

  • What's MEVIAOS?

    What's MEVIAOS?
    Jan 26 2026
    Dr. Edwin Hernandez has developed a new technology, under Mevia OS, that can be described as a "Universal Web Control: Revolutionizing Distributed Display Environments." This blog post draws directly from the provided sources regarding the patent-pending technology for seamless mobile-to-display interaction. Including use of gestures, machine learning, computer vision to interact with displays. The main goal is "Zero Friction," no applications installed, simply scan a TV or a QR Code associated with the TV and start interacting with it. Universal Web Control: The Future of Distributed Display Interaction In today’s digital landscape, the traditional remote control is becoming a relic of the past. Our latest slide deck explores Universal Web Control, a breakthrough system that transforms any mobile device into a powerful controller for smart TVs and remote displays. By leveraging decentralized or distributed operating systems, this technology allows messaging, streaming, and computation to occur in the cloud or across a local network. Beyond the Remote: How it Works The core of this innovation is the Device Connect Platform, which serves as a "glue" between web applications and mobile controllers. HOW IT WORKS? • Seamless Integration: Using a specialized web integration code (such as mevia.js), the system enables a mobile browser to act as a physical input device for a second browser running on a smart TV. • Real-Time Performance: To ensure zero-latency interaction, the system utilizes WebSockets and WebRTC. It manages these connections through sophisticated IP tunneling methods, including GRE, GTP, and VPN tunnels, ensuring traffic moves efficiently between endpoints. • Dynamic Controls: Depending on the application, your phone screen can instantly morph into a game controller, a keyboard, a video conferencing hub, or even a 3D gesture pad. Security and Smart Authentication One of the most innovative aspects of the system is how it handles user security without the friction of traditional logins. Security & Authentication • QR Code Activation: Users simply scan a Quick Response (QR) code displayed on the screen to initialize a session, which automatically maps a unique Universal Unique Identifier (UUID) to that specific display. • Gesture-Based Authentication: For enhanced security, the system can utilize a trained neural network (LSTM) to recognize specific hand gestures captured by the mobile device's accelerometer. • Location Awareness: Through Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) and cross-correlation of video feeds, the system can even identify which specific television in a room you are currently watching to ensure you are controlling the right screen. Versatile Use Cases Universal Web Control isn’t just for changing channels. As detailed in the sources, the platform supports a wide range of applications: Use Cases Art and NFT Labs: Interact with and display digital art Gaming: Turn your phone into a low-latency gamepad. Smart Home/IoT: Manage doorbell cameras or security systems from your mobile device. Professional Tools: Engage in video conferencing with camera and microphone control directly from the palm of your hand. . The attached slide deck provides a deep dive into the architecture, the Tunnel Mapping logic, and the neural network training processes that make this "Universal Web Control" possible.

    AI Stores - The future of shopping - Experience at DFW Terminal C - Fort Worth Magazine
    Jul 29 2025
    A company called Zippin describes themselves as: Checkout-free technology for frictionless stores We observed that at the Zippin delivers on this promise and it is completely frictionless.: I was able to go to the store, I picked up an item, changed my mind about it, reselected the same item and still worked fine. The receipt is available via QR Code or at a URL with your credit card information used to get into the store at Fort Worth Magazine Transcript [00:15][Dr. E]How are you doing everybody? You guys are watching TECHEDTV podcast. And we have experience with the [00:22][Dr. E]No Cashier, No checkout lines, right at the airport in Texas. We experienced that. We've seen Amazon Go before. But this one's a little better. No apps, nothing, just a credit card. [00:33][Dr. E]You guys are watching TECHEDTV Podcast. I'm so happy that we have a very interesting technology. It's called Zippin. And I experienced that in Dallas Fort Worth Airport. And let's dive in. They pick up the items they want and zip out. [00:48][Dr. E]No lines, no checkout. Our AI uses sensors and overhead cameras to identify which items have been selected and create [01:00][Dr. E]As you can see, it's a regular store. It's at the Fort Worth Magazine store, convenience store at the Dallas Fort Worth Airport. And it has very simple instruction, just in case you don't understand how it works. First, you place your credit card, get into the store, shop, pick up the items you want, and get out. No waiting, no nothing. Your card is automatic, your credit card is automatically charged with the items you picked. And as you can see here, there's a credit card entrance. So, you you read your credit card. So I pull out my my credit card. Uh, I have some difficulties with the NFC, but I guess I always have problems with that card. Something they have issues because it's metal card. Anyway, so then I slide in the chip and obviously it was red and I was able to get into the store. [01:51][Dr. E]There you go. I mean, then I'm into the store. As you can see, I walk around the different things, there are pillows, there's medications, medicines. They have snacks of every kind. They also have some food items and they're they're refrigerated that you can pick and take with you to the to to the terminal of the airport. There's some accessories for your phone, mobile phone, they have all their toiletries and all kinds of different souvenirs, more snacks, veggie snacks, soft drinks. And more people is around you, also shopping, like with you, just exactly the same way. And then you pick up, in this case it's courtesy. There's the red soda I picked. And I had to kind of return them first and then I can and still detected that it was detect that. And then you depart. Press that button over there and then you're out. Oops. Purchase something. Oh, I had some difficulties there. I tried to wave at the bottom and [02:51][Speaker 2]Sorry. [02:52][Speaker 3]keep the button when it's off like that I push it and go. [02:55][Dr. E]Ah, okay. Thank you. sensor or something. Anyway, so it worked out. If you want to experience this, it's near uh Gate C36 from Dallas Fort Worth Airport and try it yourself. And then wait a second, I didn't get my receipt. So okay, so let me go and get my receipt because they did I don't have an app, so you need an app for this. And uh return. Went back to the store. And I decided to get my receipt. And very simple, there's a barcode there, you will see. You can scan it, enter your credit card information, last four digits of your credit card and the date of the purchase, and you get your receipt. Go ahead. Just gonna scan it. Zippin, zip out, whatever. That's the slogan, that's the name of the company, Zippin. You see that? And uh there you go. You enter your credit card expiration, date on the credit card, you don't wanna see that. And voila. Get the receipt. Retrieve on your mobile phone. I want to show you the receipt, and I want to show you the mobile phone. This is the receipt that you get from uh the transaction. [04:06][Dr. E]It's very similar to the Amazon Go. So, just in case you haven't heard, Amazon has a similar concept. And but now it's becoming more popular, so it's not an Amazon store. This is a different corporation that is created in this for other convenience stores. [04:21][Speaker 4]The same way. So, we put the wall back on the shelf and help you with a beat charge. The first thing we noticed that the store looked just like any other street, just an excuse to test this technology. Just how easy it was. [04:33][Dr. E]Amazon Go app. It's integrate with Amazon, so you get your Amazon experience, I guess, and that's one another competitor of this technology. Uh, just walk out, just like it says. [04:48][Dr. E]In Korea, they have a similar thing, so you so you [04:52][Speaker 4]Someone enters a store, pick some items, convenient stores into the future, will not have anyone, will have any cashiers, will not have any people. ...
