Automatic Synthesis of OS Code

This lecture by the instructor covers the topic of automatically synthesizing OS code, focusing on the challenges faced by operating systems developers in configuring translation hardware manually. The lecture introduces the Velosiraptor project, which aims to ease the burden of OS developers by automatically generating correct code from a behavioral specification. The lecture discusses the synthesis process, search space reduction techniques, and a specialized specification language used in the project. It also highlights the performance results and ongoing work to optimize the synthesis process and address global configuration dependencies.
