I'm in the progress of designing a distributed filesystem. A key issue
of my work is the design of a cache consistency protocol based on the
comparison of several methods for maintaining cache consistency in
distributed file systems. 

I've already read articles about the Sprite and Andrew filesystems, RFS,
NFS, CFS and the Amoeba FUSS. I don't think, that this covers all work
in this area. So I'd appreciate any further references. In return I'll
summarize the responses to the net. 

Thanks in advance,
