Distributed Systems: A Comprehensive Survey
by U. Borghoff and K. Nast-Kolb.

A 85 pages long report surveys about a hundred of
distributed file/operating systems and gives 389 references
to the literature. We know that a comprehensive survey could not be
complete and up-to-date. We offer apologies in advance for any
omissions that may exist.

A compressed Postscript version of this report is on a US-site at
thumper (128.96.41.1) in the file  pub/report/dssurvey.ps.Z
as well as on a German-site at
gshalle3 (131.159.0.10) in the file  report/dssurvey.ps.Z
You can get it on both hosts via ftp anonymous.
