- Pardon my intrusion, but I'm hoping someone can help me track down a
- paper I enjoyed reading around 1986 or so. It dealt with the problems
- the Andrew developers met when building on top of Berkeley UNIX. It
- included a lot of useful design criteria they developed to, for
- example, avoid exhausting resources inside the UNIX kernel, etc. (A
- similarly useful paper came out of the SPRITE project at Berkeley as
- well, BTW.)
-
- I've been through all the papers available via FTP on
- emsworth.andrew.cmu.edu, and neither those papers nor anything
- referenced in their bibliographies ring a bell (although Morris, "Make
- or Take" is close). I've WAISed around the usual tech-report sources
- to no avail. And I spent an evening rummaging around in my hardcopy
- files and journals at home (hey, I'm desperate!).
-
- Any pointers anyone can provide would be appreciated. Please email
- responses to jsloan@ncar.ucar.edu. Thanks in advance!
