I believe that the OS that BREW sit on top of is REX. 
BREW is the middleware stack and I suppose uiOne is the next generation
UI framework for BREW.

S60, UIQ etc are said to be the user interface for Symbian OS.
How this fits into your definition?
BREW is said to sit between application and the software in ASIC, i.e.,
between application and the hardware. S60 has Symbian as its OS, what is
the OS upon which BREW sits then? Is it in the ASIC?
