Re: [9fans] MS Research reinvents Inferno?

I've several texts on OS that are pretty good for undergrad class, but
is there an equivalent to Knuth's `Art of Computer Programming' or the
second Dragon book?  Seems that a lot of wasted effort could be
avoided by having a good servey of the ideas and references to
previous work.  Bell & Newell, and Blaauw & Brooks, did this for
Architectures.  A journey thru the Dragon book's bibliography is like
a time machine to learn from the past.
