%X A transputer is a complete microcomputer integrated in a
   single VLSI chip. Each transputer has a number of
   communication links, allowing transputers to be
   interconnected to form concurrent processing systems. The
   transputer instruction set contains Instructions to send and
   receive messages through these links, minimising delays in
   inter\-transputer communication. Transputers can be directly
   interconnected to form specialised networks, or can be
   interconnected via routing chips. Routing chips are VLSI
   building blocks for interconnection networks: they can
   support system\-wide message routing at high throughput and
   low delay.
