      The purpose of the dissertation is to develop the Modular Operating System (MOS), an multiplataform operating system based in modules, and his programing language Modular Operating System Language (MOSLanguage). The objective of this operating system is to allow devices with the this operating system communicate with each other and then exchange programs called Module. This aproach has been used to try to solve problems during the development of application that mey use multiple processing unities.
      The dissertation indicates the points that MOS should hit while exposes how the system works. Then the MOSLanguage is presented, showing the relation between MOS`s primary elements. At last, the C++ structures that represent the OS are detailed considering microprocessors with Windows or Linux and microcontrollers AVR (modified RISC) in which MOS should function.
