Idea
I have decided to do a project on operating system design for my science fair project at school. I have been doing some research, and am trying to find some concept that hasn't been exstensively tested or explored. Most of the information that I read is about established operating system design practices, and I am having trouble finding information about cutting edge ideas that have yet to be fully explored. Does anyone have any suggestions on possible ideas or good sources of information? Thanks.

Re:Idea
Exokernels seem to be an active area of OS research right now.
Top three reasons why my OS project died:
- Too much overtime at work
- Got married
- My brain got stuck in an infinite loop while trying to design the memory manager

Re:Idea
Exokernel seems to be the most fashionable research area right now (A simple google should turn up plenty of links).
Another fun idea to explore might be a massively distributed operating system, where every computer in the system just represents more resources for the whole system (That would be an extension of grid computing to general use).
