I Inferno (Lucent Technologies Inc. now http://www.vitanuova.com/ )  Inferno is now free software

Comercial version of   Plan 9. Lucent is a spin-off of Bell Labs. 
Inferno(tm) is a new network operating system and programming environment to deliver content in a rich environment of heterogenous networks, clients and servers. The Inferno system includes the Inferno kernel, the Limbo(tm) programming language, reference APIs that include interfaces for networking and graphics, network protocols, security and authentication, and various toolkits. Inferno was developed by members of the Computing Sciences Research Center of Bell Laboratories, the research devision of Lucent Technologies.


IOCS (Input Output Control System) 
A pre-OS, like IBSYS for the IBM 7094.  The founding generation of computers had no operating system. The earliest OS- like software in the late fifties were called IOCS (Input/Output Control System) or Monitor. Their main task was to ease Input/Output, not to handle it in the sense of an OS. The OS/360 developed by IBM in 1962 is generally considered the first "real" OS.


ISIS(outdated)

ISIS was the OS delivered with the INTEL(and Siemens second source)-developpement-system for the 8008 and 8080-System in the mid to late 70'ths and early 80ths(at the same time as CP/M). The file system of ISIS used (in the 80ths!!) a variant of the linked-list, which is in this form absolutely not suited for a disc file system: every block on disc had a header forming the linked-list node, which meant that random acces was by design excluded. Since sequential acces tends to be slow, the OS (and by this the processor) had a bad reputation.

ITRON

ITRON (industrial TRON) is a real-time operating system specification for embedded systems. Many products have been developed based on the ITRON specifications. ITRON is a de-fact standard operating system specification in Japan for consumer applications.
