'''Optimized Systems Software''' ('''OSS''') was a company that produced [[disk operating system]]s, [[programming language]]s with integrated development environments, and applications primarily for the [[Atari 8-bit family]] of home computers. The founders of OSS previously developed [[Atari DOS]], [[Atari BASIC]], and the [[Atari Assembler Editor]] for [[Atari, Inc.]], and many OSS products are substantially improved versions. {{nowrap|OS A+}} and [[DOS XL]] are based on Atari DOS. [[BASIC A+]], BASIC XL, and BASIC XE are based on Atari BASIC. EASMD and [[MAC/65]] are modeled on the [[Atari Assembler Editor]]. [[Action! (programming language)|Action!]] is an [[ALGOL]]-inspired compiled programming language with an integrated full-screen editor. OSS also sold some software for the [[Apple II]].<ref name=finest/>
OSS transitioned to the [[Atari ST]] with Personal Pascal<ref name=ppmanual>{{cite web|title=Personal Pascal for the Atari ST Manual|url=https://archive.org/details/OSSPersonalPascal|website=archive.org}}</ref> and the [[Mac (computer)|Mac]] with Personal Prolog (which was also advertised for the Atari ST, but may not have been released). OSS was not as significant in those markets. The company merged with ICD in 1988.
