[comp.sys.transputer] Dynamically creating arrays of processors

In response to Daniel Martin's questions about dynamic creation of
process arrays, and multiplexing dynamically allocated channels:

We have built a router/multiplexor which spawns multiple threads to
multiplex messages from a number of channels which is not known until
run time. Don't know if you can do this in occam, because I've never
used it. We're using 3L Parallel C.

(BTW, do folk in the US get to read stuff I post here?)
