[comp.os.research] Distributed systems project information request

jsv@hpsadln8.hp.com (Jeffrey Vetter) (08/08/90)

I would like to know about all of the distributed systems projects that are 
completed or underway.  I already have information about a few of them
including:

          Project                     Sponsor
          -------                     -------
          Mach                        CMU
          Ameoba                      Tanenbaum
          Sprite                      Berkeley
          Plan-9                      ATT
          Choices                     U of Illinois
          Clouds                      Georgia Tech

I realize that these are the popular projects; however, I would like
information on all types of work in the distributed computing area.

Do you know of any projects?

Thanks.

There is also the V System from Stanford. An overview article
is "The V Distributed OPerating System" by David R. Cheriton
in Communications of the ACM, Vol 31 No 2, pp 105--115, 
February 1988. It predates many of the systems on your list.
