Examines applications of transputers and OCCAM, including numerical, image processing, neural networks, natural language processing, networks and biological systems, as well as tools, routeing and mapping. The T9000 new generation transputer introduction is further discussed.

This volume contains papers presented at the 18th meeting of the World Occam and Transputer User Group (Wotug). The papers cover a wide range of transputer and OCCAM-related topics, such as the the porting and development of the OCCAM language (highlighting the need for cross platform implementations of OCCAM compilers), design approaches and applications.

The contributed chapters to this volume provide a broad coverage of the areas of research in current parallel computing: architectures, languages and tools, graphics and fault tolerance. Additionally, the Inmos approach to building an asynchronous transfer mode system and the University of Twente method for designing system-level embedded controllers are featured in this work.

The papers included in this book provide a wide coverage of current thinking and the new concepts which are being developed resulting from the introduction of the T9000. The role and use of the newly developed transputer and associated routing component, the C104, is discussed, and the use of existing range of transputers in the embedded systems market is also dealt with.

Comprises discussions presented by leading international experts on the application of transputers. Coverage includes formalism, specifications and design, concurrent systems development, parallel algorithms, real time systems and applications.

Technical articles on the 19th meeting of the World Occam and Transputer User Group (WoTUG). They cover a wide range of topics from hardware applications to software tools for of parallel processing support; not solely related to transputers. Part of the book focusses on the retargeting of the occam compiler to a range of other processors.

The research reports presented in this volume focus on the implications of the T9000 microprocessor, which offers new elements in transputing and parallel programming. Subjects discussed include genetic algorithms, image analysis, neural networks, robotics and parallel architectures.

This work comprises the proceedings of the Transputer Research and Applications Conference held in Georgia from October 23rd to October 25th, 1994. The conference is sponsored by the North American Transputer Users Group (NATUG).
