Suggestions::

• Read something about Computer Architecture or Virtual Memory. The CACM or the SigArch (ACM special interest group on Architecture) or IEEE Micro are good places to look for articles on both areas.
• If you read OS papers, try to find ones dealing with memory issues. I put a few Usenix conference proceedings in the cs terminal room - please return the proceedings, also some journals are in the Dept Conference Rm.
• Also, on the Sun web pages are some whitepapers on semaphores, threads, etc.
• Again the library or the CS library have relevant articles.
  Try another formatter: latex, html, troff, etc.
