Description and Table of Contents
Description
The symposium held in Reading in March 1992 celebrated the completion of a 5-year Initiative in the Engineering Applications of Transputers. It reviewed achievements in a range of applications and supporting fields and predicted future developments. This book represents a collection of articles presented at this meeting, as well as independent reviews of the Transputer Initiative. The first part contains a collection of nearly all the papers presented, describing projects undertaken in collaboration with industry or commerce by Regional Transputer Support Centres established through the initiative. Also discussed is the application of transputers to real-time control and image processing, as well as a variety of hardware and software issues pertinent to the development and continuing progress of transputer applications. The book then presents independent reviews of the Transputer Intitiative.
