        I am writing a survey paper on "multi-structured I/O file systems that
use various techniques to provide higher data transfer rates for multimedia
applications on object-oriented distributed computing systems."  I would
appreciate it very much if anybody knows of any ftp sites for OS/multimedia
papers.  Also, if you have a copy of any of the papers (postscript format)
mentioned below or know how to contact the authors of the papers or have other
papers relating to OS/multimedia, could you please email the papers or any
information on how to obtain them or other papers to me as soon as possible.
My email address is:   cosc161m@menudo.uh.edu


I already have the three papers at the "icsi-ftp.Berkeley.EDU" site in the
directory "pub/dash".
