Abstract:
This paper presents HyperGraphOS, an innovative Operating System (OS) 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 (DSLs) drive workspace navigation, code generation, AI integration, and process organization. The platform’s 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 (LLMs), and meta-modeling for feature-based code development. Results show significant improvements in fle
xibility, data management, computation, and document handling. By bridging traditional OS functionality with innovative UX design to fulfill the needs of modern applications, HyperGraphOS delivers enhanced productivity and efficiency. Its graph-based model representation and integration with DSLs create a highly flexible, user-friendly environment, making it ideal for a wide range of scientific and engineering contexts.
