Кто-нибудь может прокомментировать --- ОС (http://portos.org/) и упоминаемая Пфистером --- одно и тоже, или это совпадение названия?

These factors are particularly important for embedded systems, such as robot control systems. For cost reasons, even high-performance embedded systems have only limited amounts of memory, and it is often necessary to write new device drivers for such applications.  Portos is completely implemented in Component Pascal, and supports applications written in Java. The two languages are close enough that they can even share the same asynchronous real-time garbage collector.
