I believe you're referring to the work by (of the famous "Risks Digest" and software reliability/security). He wrote a short but well-known note titled "FAXCOOL.EXE" in the Software Engineering Notes (SEN) or the Risks Forum, likely around 1992–1994.

That is an interestingly named paper, because "FAXCOOL.EXE" sounds like an old MS-DOS executable—not a typical academic paper title.

Are you looking for a PDF of it, or were you hoping to discuss its specific technical risk analysis?
