Spinellis has written a good paper for the “30th International Conference on Software

Engineering” (ICSE ’08) that looks at the code quality of the source codes of Windows (WRK –

Research Kernel based on Windows Server 2003), Linux, Solaris and FreeBSD.

Diomidis has analyzed the source codes of these 4 kernels and uses some code

metrics, in order to measure the quality of each kernel in each area.

For those, who don’t like reading lengthy texts, a summary

of the results is at the end (section 5: summary and discussion). Each operating system has its own strengths and weaknesses, so there is no clear winner.

Finally, Diomidis has a very lengthy list of classic reads at his website.
