I'm looking for a copy of Guy Jacobson's PhD thesis: http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=915547 but I couldn't find it so far. Does anybody know where can I access it ? I really need it.
Thanks in advance.

3$\begingroup$ Did you ask your local university library? The thesis seems to be available in many university libraries, and I would be very surprised if you could not get a copy of it through the interlibrary services. $\endgroup$– Jukka SuomelaOct 23, 2011 at 22:56

6$\begingroup$ By the way, there is no reason not to include the name of the author and the precise title of the thesis in your question. $\endgroup$– Tsuyoshi ItoOct 23, 2011 at 23:06

1$\begingroup$ Libraries at university usually have inter-loan arrangements, try asking someone in your library to request a copy from CMU's library. $\endgroup$– KavehOct 26, 2011 at 9:33

You could try writing CMU to ask for a copy of the technical report version; Jacobson's thesis is technical report number CMU-CS-89-112. No idea if this would actually work though.
It's also possible, but unlikely, that Jacobson's advisor has an electronic copy.
As a last resort, you (or your advisor, or your university library) can order a copy from ProQuest, the entity formerly known as University Microfilms. [Sorry, there's no way to link directly; just search for "Guy Jacobson".] A PDF copy costs \$37; a softbound paper copy costs \$59.

1$\begingroup$ This paper is based on Jacobson's thesis, but it is not the same thing at all. $\endgroup$– Ted HoppDec 27, 2019 at 20:22
