....means of box advertisements. The Inferno operating system [5] offers the ideas of Plan 9 in a highly portable environment. What has been said for Plan 9 can be also applied to Inferno. Going back in time, old typed file systems as well as modern typed file systems, like the one used by Nemesis [4], are obviously ancestors of the box abstraction, however, such file systems did not use constraints, nor a converter set. There are many other systems that try to permit flexible access to network resources, such as Odissey [6] and Khazana [3] Most of them do not provide a full operating system ....

....used on those systems. Our central abstraction, the box, is heavily influenced by distributed shared objects [6] and OO file systems like frigrate [7] Unlike files on these systems, the box unifies files and directories, allows type conversion and has simple well understood operations. Nemesis [3] allows users to install new file types. However, the system does not exploit its file abstraction to export system services to the network and simplify the middleware needed to cooperate with traditional systems. Due to space constraints we omit the discussion of other related work, which, as ....

The Box: A Replacement for Files - Ballesteros, Arevalo (1999) (Correct)
....systems. It has just been the successfulness of files, the one cutting the birth of new, potentially better, alternatives. Sadly, even those authors who advocate that the everything is a file model has had its days, ended up proposing integrated file systems as the replacement for file systems [3]. We think it is time to seek for a new abstraction, that could fulfill the needs of modern computing systems. In what follows we try to do so. 2. The box A box is an always opened recipient containing some data. System resources ranging from an entire application, to a user settable variable, ....
....3. Related work Old typed file systems are obviously ancestors of the box abstraction. However, neither type converters nor a share operation were present on them. Converters are also missing on those systems mentioned below. Some modern typed file systems, like the one used by Nemesis [3], allow applications to install new file types, tailoring the implementation of the file system to exploit semantic information. Boxes are of a higher level of abstraction, and are not related to the implementation of disk related policies. Boxes (and specially their share operation) are also ....
