Wikipedia Articles
- INMOS transputer - The INMOS transputer (the all-lowercase "transputer" was the official written form) was a pioneering concurrent computing microprocessor design of the 1980s from INMOS, a British semiconductor company based in Bristol. For some time in the late 1980s many considered the transputer to be the next great design for the future of computing.
- Atari Transputer Workstation - The Atari Transputer Workstation (also known as ATW-800, or simply ATW) was a workstation class computer released by Atari in the late 1980s. Based on the INMOS transputer, the machine was considerably more powerful than anything available on the market at the time.
- HeliOS - HeliOS was a Unix-like operating system for parallel computers developed and sold by Perihelion Software. It was most commonly used on various Transputer systems, but also supported other architectures.
- Meiko Computing Surface - The Meiko Computing Surface (sometimes retrospectively referred to as the CS-1) was a massively parallel supercomputer produced by Meiko Scientific. The system was based on the INMOS transputer microprocessor, later also using SPARC and Intel i860 processors.
- Meiko Scientific - Meiko Scientific Ltd. was a British supercomputer company based in Bristol, founded by members of the design team working on the INMOS transputer microprocessor.
