This page:
http://www.iti.mu-luebeck.de/~petri/pbeamrefs.html
includes this reference:
G. Popek and and B. Walker and J. Chow and D. Edwards and C. Kline
and G. Rudisin and G. Thiel: LOCUS: A Network Transparent, High
Reliability Distributed System. In Operating Systems Review, volume
15, number 5, December 1981, pages 169--177.
BTW, I have been working on this problem since 1984. Give me another 30
years and I will show you a great prototype running on Squeak :-)
