The research paper centered around the XingZhan OS has clinched the prestigious Best Paper Award at SOSP 2025. This year's SOSP conference witnessed a surge in submissions, with 368 papers vying for recognition. Ultimately, only 66 papers were accepted, and among them, a mere three were honored with the Best Paper Award. XingZhan stands as an open - source system software stack, which was made publicly accessible on October 22, 2024. It zeroes in on secure and reliable underlying technologies, encompassing both the XingZhan OS and the XingZhan Confidential Computing projects. The kernel design of XingZhan strikes a delicate balance between performance and security. SOSP, a leading - edge conference in the realm of operating systems and system software, bestowed the award on the paper titled "CortenMM: Efficient Memory Management with Strong Correctness Guarantees". This paper delves into the innovative aspects of XingZhan's proprietary CortenMM technology in memory management. This groundbreaking technology adopts a "single - layer abstraction" architecture, breaking away from the conventional independent software abstraction layer. Its performance can soar up to 26 times that of Linux, while simultaneously effectively sidestepping concurrent vulnerabilities. Over the past year, three papers from the XingZhan project have been featured in top - tier conferences. The project has also amassed over 3,600 Stars on GitHub, made headlines in major foreign technology communities, and secured the "Most Influential Open Source Innovation Contribution Award" at the OS2ATC 2025 conference.
