The summer USENIX paper on the distributed UNIX operating
system LOCUS was impressive. 

Is it out yet? What does it run on?

There are two papers that I know of:

	Walker, B., Popek, G., English, R., et. al., "The LOCUS
	Distributed Operating System", SIGOPS, Vol. 17-5, (October
	1983), pp. 49-70.

	Butterfield, D. and Popek, G., "Network Tasking in the
	Locus Distributed Unix System", USENIX 1984 Summer Conference
	Proceedings, pp. 62-71.

A few of these guys formed a company:
