This is in reference to two people requiring material on transputers.
There are a lot of books and papers on occam abound. Some try to deal with
the how occam is implemented on the transputer. The two references that
are given below might be helpful :-

	1. The transputer implementation of occam.
	   David May and Roger Shepherd.
	   Inmos Ltd, England.
	2. Compiling Occam into Silicon.
	   David May and Catherine Keane.
	   Inmos Ltd, England.

 You might also find the IMS T414 referance manual helpful.
 All of the above can be obtained from Inmos Limited.
 Alteranatively you might like to obtain one of the recent publications on
 occam which usually contain useful references on harware aspects of
 the transputer.
 If you have access to a good library, a flip through the science citation
 index and abtracts for different journals, especially around 1986 and 1987
 will turn up something.

 Nazir.
