It sounds to me like the OP is making a project to learn with. If he
wants to learn about hardware interrupts, 16 bit DOS is a good place to
start, though he will need a suitable compiler. If he wants to learn
about device drivers in big, modern, OSes then Linux or Windows should
be good platforms, but are a lot more complicated than simple real-mode
interrupts. If he wants to experiment with networked computers, OTOH,
then appendix E Distributed Systems is much easier.
What platforms do they use in CS classes to teach interrupts and such?
