Gelato@UNSW

Gelato@UNSW was part of the global Gelato.org federation. It was supported by HP's Linux and Open Source Lab and a Linkage Grant from the Australian Research Council.

As part of Gelato.org's world-wide effort on enhancing Linux on the Itanium architecture, the Gelato@UNSW team focussed on scalability and performance of the Linux kernel. While Gelato@UNSW was not part of NICTA, it was co-located and collaborated closely with NICTA's ERTOS Program, specifically in the areas of user-level device drivers and virtualisation.
