Jon Beck told me that his thesis was never published and that he wrote quite a bit about the "modules" that never appeared even in the thesis. I guess if someone wanted to publish it as a technical report of some description, Beck might be persuaded to give them the manuscript. But this is off the top of my head, one would have to contact him and ask. Unfortunately I couldn't even try do this in Cambridge, as only the Computer Laboratory produces technical reports...
