[Barrelfish-users] Does Barrelfish support Beehive?

Hi,

You might also be interested in looking at the support for Barrelfish in the Gem5 simulator.

There are, of course, the usual trade-offs between working in a simulator modelling a modified existing processor, versus working on reconfigurable hardware.
