This is a copy of original A2 Repository (defunc) at ETH-Zürich, which should be available at its new place at ETHZ (when prompted for credentials supply user "infsvn.anonymous" and password "anonymous"). Another entry point ist the project page at ETHZ: http://cas.inf.ethz.ch/projects/a2. The copy of the SVN repository available here is obsoleted by metacore's active, but unoffical mirror copy, which is updated regularily (at least afaik). The repository here was handed over to me by github user Ignat99 in October 2017; I had intended to do the same as metacore (synchronize the git repository with the subversion repository), but I found metacore's repo some time later and since I did not want to duplicate metacore's achievement, I did not follow up my original idea.

Ignat99 had enriched the original mirror by other interesting stuff, especially:

  1. Extra ISO image A2_Rev-6498_serial-trace.iso which originally I had created and provided quite some time ago on SourceForge. Sorrily I encountered problems in creating the ISO image, which I was unable to resolve, so there are no images after Revision 6498.

  2. Stuff for MacOSX (Darwin) - UnixAos

  3. Extra Modules for A2 - subversion community repository (defunc) which moved inside the new repository

More information about A2 OS cane be found in Wikipedia, the Oberon Wikibook and on the sites linked below.

Installation

Installation and Configuration

Compiling Boot Loader

Linux Ubuntu AMD64 (aos.linux)

sudo apt-get install make
sudo apt-get install gcc
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)

cd ~/a2/UnixAos/boot

Running i386 (32 bit) over AMD64

sudo ln -s /usr/include/asm-generic /usr/include/asm
sudo apt-get install libc6-dev-i386
sudo apt-get install libX11-dev:i386
make -f Makefile.linux

Running native 64 bit version over AMD64

nano +27 aos.c # "Need change sys/types.h to linux/types.h"
sudo ln -s /usr/include/asm-generic /usr/include/asm
make -f Makefile.linux.amd64

Copy Boot Loater to install folder

sudo cp ./aos.linux /usr/aos/aos.linux

Forward X over SSH and run A2

sudo apt-get install xauth

On the client side, the -X (capital X) option to ssh enables X11 forwarding, and you can make this the default (for all connections or for a specific conection) with ForwardX11 yes in

sudo nano /etc/ssh_config

or

sudo nano ~/.ssh/config

On the server side, X11Forwarding yes must specified in

sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Note that the default is no forwarding (some distributions turn it on in their default /etc/ssh/sshd_config), and that the user cannot override this setting.

ssh -X <your_ip_adress> -p <your_port> -l <your_user_name>
cd ~/workdir
aos

Main content of a2/WinAos/license.txt

This is a compilation of the

  • ETH WinAos System (Windows Emulation of the Active Object System, aka A2) and
  • the software packages Voyager and AntsInFields.

Nearly all parts of this compilation belong to the ETH WinAos System, exceptions are the files of "AntsInFields" and "Voyager"


Oberon is the name of a modern integrated software environment. It is a single-user, multi-tasking system that runs on bare hardware or on top of a host operating system. Oberon is also the name of a programming language in the Pascal/Modula tradition. The Oberon project was launched in 1985 by Niklaus Wirth and Jьrg Gutknecht. See also http://www.oberon.ethz.ch

Voyager is a project to explore the feasibility of a portable and extensible system for simulation and data analysis systems. It is mainly written in and for Oberon. The Voyager project is carried out by StatLab Heidelberg and was launched in 1993 by Gьnther Sawitzki. See also http://www.statlab.uni-heidelberg.de/projects/voyager/

AntsInFields is a Software Package for Simulation and Statistical Inference on Gibbs Fields. AntsInFields is written in Oberon and uses Voyager. It has been developed since 1997 by Felix Friedrich.


Voyager is - in this distribution - located in the directory "Work/vy" Source code of Voyager is marked by preceding "vy" for all Module-Names

AntsInFields is - in this distribution - located in the directory "Work/ants" Source code of AntsInFields is marked by preceding letters "ants" for all Module Names.
