There was also an analogous book on the System/38, which also has inverted page
tables.  I don't own a copy of that book, and the only reference I can lay
my hands on doesn't have a order number, but the title is "IBM System/38
Technical Developments."  It was published in '78.  I know that there was
a virtual memory article in that book, by R.E. French and others, so there
may be discussion of inverted page tables in that or some other article.
