[comp.os.research] Open System Documentation Wanted

darrell@sdcsvax.UUCP (06/15/87)

I am considering some changes to our Unix-based distributed operating system
kernel.  One possibility is to consider a more open approach.  I would like
to get more details on two of the "well-known" approaches -- namely Sun's NFS
and Apollo's new(er) system for workload distribution.  The data I have is
all old or superficial.  Can anyone (e.g., developers concerned) point me to
the appropriate data?  What I really want is documentation on how the systems
work in general (detailed), and enough (third party) developer's
documentation that I can make a reasonable decision on the utility of the
systems for our purposes and development effort in getting there.  Either the
documentation, pointers to it, or data on how to order it would be
appreciated.

Thanks.
