This ought to be on a Frequently Asked Questions list.

Both specifications are quite lengthy (over 175 pages).

Motorola publishes "The VMEbus Specification" revision C.1.
You should be able to get one from your local Motorola rep for free,
or your college engineering dept can, or the college purchashing dept.
There is a almost-exactly-equivalent IEEE spec P1014 and an IEC spec 821.
Last time I checked, these both cost $$.  The Motorola book is probably
cheapest even if you have to pay for it.

The only real reference for the PC/AT bus (otherwise known as the ISA
bus) is:
    AT Bus Design, by Edward Solari, Annabooks, San Diego
    ISBN 0-929392-08-6
    (hold on to your seat...(:-) $69.95.
Talk someone else into buying it and then borrow it.
