Abstract
Obsolescence and its impacts on software and systems continue to be of interest. Reducing obsolescence in operating systems and microprocessors will help to reduce software obsolescence. We examine obsolescence in Intel microprocessors and Windows operating systems. We first present data that illustrates the extent of the problem. We then consider extensible designs to reduce obsolescence in operating systems and microprocessors. This approach can be adapted to design software and hardware that are resilient to obsolescence.
