During OUG-10 Fabrice Mourlin of the University of Paris Sud
ga a demonstration of what he called "A graphical environment
for OCCAM Programming" it runs on a SUN. He writes among other things's
in the abstract of his hand-out:
"Creating a graphical environment for OCCAM programming and debugging.
This grphic interface represents an OCCAM program in the form of building
blocks. The program execution is controlled by a scheduling module that
provides the necessary data for anamating  the diagram created and displaying
the variables and communication at any level. Thanks to these functions, our
approach to debugging also corresponds to a tool for understanding programs
written in a parallel langage"
 
The program works in OCCAM 1, Fabrice said he will have it to run OCCAM 2
in september next. I was quite impressed with his demonstration and I suggest
you ask a copy of his and-out if you are interested.
