Well it is a good thing you choose to keep it a secret what other operating system uses that terminology. All general purpose operating systems offer something that does this -- the question is who uses the same terminology. I do not consider either SMP or journaled file systems to be relevant, since those are very standard terms used across the industry. DLLs are a specific term not used in many operating systems that do the same thing.
