Does anybody known if there is hardware to allow a Personal IRIS to act as a host for a Transputer network (racks/boards etc) ? If so, what kind of compilers/tools are available ? or can a PC compile a 3L Parallel C program and then shuffle up the executable (as the afserver protocol should be the same) ? Any comments are appreciated, thanks !

Two aspects of TDS have to be modified for the Iris, a device driver for the board, and the iserver software for communicating with the board. SGS/Thomson has helped us get up and running with this, but they don't officially support the Iris as a host at this time. Contact Laurie Pegrum at pegruml@isnet.inmos.com to express your interest in SGS/Thomson's further development of the Iris as a network host. (Laurie is Lawrence, a man.)

Well, all 4D series machines (including the Personal Iris) have a pretty standard VME bus. Some people use the INMOS B014 board and the INMOS Sun3 toolkits with a modified iserver. INMOS in the US actaully own a PI. You might like to send mail to pegruml@isnet.inmos.com. He may have more up to date information on device drivers and modified toolkits for Irix. > can a PC compile a 3L Parallel C program and then shuffle up the executable Absolutely.
