There is a discussion of the U-Interpreter in chapter 2 of
MIT/LCS/TR-332 "Resource Management for the Tagged Token Dataflow
Architecture" by David E.  Culler.  This is an MS Thesis from 1985.
The coverage is somewhat more extensive than in Hwang and Briggs, and
answered a few of my questions about dataflow.  In particular, it
shows what sort of performance problems the implementors ran into.
