OSE provides a framework for building event driven systems, Web-based services, and distributed applications using C++ and Python. A HTTP servlet framework is included, and separate gateways for XML-RPC and SOAP protocols are also available.
OSE is a C++ library, with some Python wrappers, containing generic classes, as well as support for event driven systems, interprocess communications and a request/reply, publish/subscribe service agent framework with RPC over HTTP interface.
In demonology, Ose is a Great President of Hell, ruling three legions of demons (thirty to other authors, and Pseudomonarchia Daemonum gives no number of legions). He makes men wise in all liberal sciences and gives true answers concerning divine and secret things; he also brings insanity to any person the conjurer wishes, making him/her believe that he/she is the creature or thing the magician desired, or makes that person think he is a king and wearing a crown, or a Pope.
