Select username, osuser, machine from v$session order by use machine, osuser, username

I had an environment where multiple tier applications using JDBC are connecting to the database. I am seeing OSUSER in v$session is coming out from lots of sessions as root or even ? and they are not background process sessions. Can someone help to provide some explanation?
