Amoeba was an experimental, microkernel-based distributed operating system developed by Andrew S. Tanenbaum and others at the Vrije Universiteit. The aim of the Amoeba project was to build a timesharing system that made an entire network of computers appear to the user as a single machine. Development seems to have stalled: the files in the latest version (5.3) were last modified on the 12 February 2001.
Amoeba ran on several platforms, including i386, Sun-3 and SPARC.
The Python programming language was originally developed as the scripting language for Amoeba.
