HyperGraphOS: A Meta Operating System for Science and Engineering
This addresses the problem of organizing knowledge and models for scientists and engineers, though it appears incremental as it builds on existing concepts like graph modeling and web architectures.
The paper tackles the challenge of managing complex scientific and engineering models by introducing HyperGraphOS, a meta operating system that combines graph modeling, data containers, and computational tools into a dynamic web-based workspace, with results showing significant improvements in flexibility, data management, computation, and document handling.
This paper presents HyperGraphOS, an innovative Operating System designed for the scientific and engineering domains. It combines model based engineering, graph modeling, data containers, and computational tools, offering users a dynamic workspace for creating and managing complex models represented as customizable graphs. Using a web based architecture, HyperGraphOS requires only a modern browser to organize knowledge, documents, and content into interconnected models. Domain Specific Languages drive workspace navigation, code generation, AI integration, and process organization.The platform models function as both visual drawings and data structures, enabling dynamic modifications and inspection, both interactively and programmatically. HyperGraphOS was evaluated across various domains, including virtual avatars, robotic task planning using Large Language Models, and meta modeling for feature based code development. Results show significant improvements in flexibility, data management, computation, and document handling.
