1. Introduction

This document catalogs miscellaneous documents from the Memory Pool System project (MPS). The documents are listed in appendix A, "References".

The documents listed here are historical, non-living documents. In other words, they are produced for a particular purpose, delivered, and then left alone. They are not maintained or brought up to date, except perhaps to keep up with changes in document conventions or format, or to make minor corrections. Living documents, such as designs, requirements, procedures, etc. are maintained elsewhere.

The intended readership of this document is anyone interested in the project.

This document is not confidential.

This document is formatted so that parts of appendix A, "References" can be copied and pasted into other documents in order to create cross references.
