The Chippewa Operating System often called COS was the operating system for the CDC 6600 supercomputer, and also ran on other CDC 6000 machines. It later influenced Kronos and SCOPE.[1] The name of the sstem was based on the Chippewa Falls research and development center of CDC in Wisconsin.

This operating system at Control Data Corporation was distinct from and preceded the Cray Operating System (also called COS) at Cray.
