I am preparing a paper on Distributed Object Systems and as such
request pointers to material. So far I have collected papers dealing
with the following systems: CHORUS, Clouds, Camelot and GUIDE. In the
commercial sector, I have procured some information dealing with the
activity of the OMG, specificaly in reference to the rfp for the Object
Request Broker.
I'm sure that I have missed a ton of relevant and exciting
developments. Any assistance to fill in these gaps, especially in the
commercial and standards areas will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You should include the U. of Washington's distributed O-O systems: Eden -> Emerald -> Amber. I don't have exact references, but you should find some papers about it in IEEE Tr. on Soft. Eng. and OOPSLA proc. Luiz A. Barroso EE-Systems, USC, LA, CA, USA

Hrywnak As far as your papers on Chorus go, I am not sure if you have our most recent stuff. There is some stuff available by anonymous FTP and there is more available on request. Besides the Chorus operating system itself there is COOL (Chorus Obejct Oriented Layer) which is a layer for building object oriented systems on top of the Chorus nucleus. Currently running on top of that, more as a proof of concept than anything, is the ANSA testbench and a C++ system. COOL is currently being used in various research projects and the redesign is currently being worked on. The goal of COOL2 will be (among others) to provide migration of active objects (migration of non-active objects already existing) and transparent invocation and support for language level persistance. There are papers on COOL available also by anonymous FTP one paper was recently presented in the last AFUU conference. There are no papers as yet on the design of COOL2. For papers or further information on Chorus or pointers to where to find papers. You can write to me. For further information on COOL, You may as well write to Rodger Lea. rodger@chorus.fr who is much more objectionable than I. -- L.S.
