Parallel processing is now becoming a household word among computer researchers and designers. This work contains 29 contributions from leading experts in the field attending the 1992 NATUG conference.

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).

Papers in this book report on a wide variety of multicomputer applications, systems and architectures. They all have one aspect on common which is message passing multiprocessors. It includes research presentations of the T9000, TI C-40 and T8/i860-based multicomputers.

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.

ZEUS (Centres of European Supercomputing) is a network for information exchange and co-operation between European Supercomputer Centres. During the fall of 1994 the idea was put forward to start an annual workshop to stimulate the exchange of ideas and experience in parallel programming and computing between researchers and users from industry and academia. The first workshop in this series, the ZEUS '95 Workshop on Parallel Programming and Computation, is organized at Linkoping University, where the Swedish ZEUS centre, NSC (National Supercomputer Centre) is located. This is open for all researchers and users in the field of parallel computing.

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.
