----------------------
I received the following references in response to my query about
CAMELOT.

The reference given in the paper
"The duality of memory and communication in the implementation of a
multiprocessor operating system", 11th ACM Sym Op. Sys. Principles,
Young et al.

was

Spector, A. Z. NATO Advanced Study institute - Computer and Systems
Sciences. Volume: Distributed Transaction Processing and the Camelot
System.
In "Distributed Operating Systems: Theory and Practice", Yakup Paker, Ed.
Springer-Verlag, 1987.

Also available as CMU tech report CMU-CS-87-100, January 1987


-----------------

In addition, I found the following tech reports here in our
department.

Jeffrey L. Eppinger, Virtual Memory Management for Transaction
                     Processing Systems, February 1989,
                     CMU-CS-89-115 (his dissertation)

Dean Spencer Daniels, Distributed Logging for Transaction Processing,
                     December 1988, CMU-CS-89-114 (his dissertation)



They reference other papers by Alfred Spector in the following:

IEEE Trans. on Software Engineering, June 1985.

Proceeding of the 10th Symposium on Operating System Principles, 1985

Database Engineering, December 1986 (also as tech report CMU-CS-86-166 )

Proceedings of COMPCON 88, February 1988.
