[comp.os.research] Papers on the Sprite network operating system wanted

steve@yoyodyne.mit.edu (Steve Jones) (02/05/91)

Greetings,

	Sprite has entered consideration for some thesis work I hope to
do this Fall. I've read the '88 paper in IEEE Computer, and was wondering
if any of the Sprite papers cited there, or any other papers on said
system were available online.

	And if anyone responding happens to know what contortions I'm
going to have to go through to get a copy of the distribution, I wouldn't
mind hearing about it now rather than later.

Thanks very much,
--Steve.

Some of them may be available via anonymous ftp from sprite.berkeley.edu.

Send email to sprite-request@sprite.berkeley.edu, asking for the
"sprite packet."
