  abstract=      "We demonstrate the feasibility of distributed execution of
     occam programs within computer networks which support open
     systems standards for inter-process communication, remote
     execution and program hosting (e.g. hardware-independent
     programming languages and operating-system-independent
     APIs). We first propose a general architecture, and then
     describe a constructive proof of its viability (i.e. a
     prototype). which uses a novel multiplexed virtual channel
     protocol over UNIX sockets. Finally we summarise some of the
     opportunities for further development which this project has
     created."
