You will want to read the following:

%A D. Keeffe
%A G. M. Tomlinson
%A I. C. Wand
%A A. J. Wellings
%T Pulse: An Ada-based Distributed Operating System
%I Academic Press
%O Volume 26 in A.P.I.C. Studies in Data Processing
%C London
%D 1985

The book is a comprehensive discussion of the design and implementation
of a distributed operating system in (and for) Ada.  It includes an 
excelent, though no longer up-to-date, bibliography.
