  abstract=      "Tock is a compiler for concurrent programming languages
     under
development at the University of Kent. It translates
     occam-\π and
Rain into portable, high-performance C
     or C++. It is implemented
in Haskell using the nanopass
     approach, and aims to make it easy to
experiment with new
     language and compiler features. Since our
     initial
presentation of Tock at CPA 2007, we have added new
     frontends and
backends, implemented a parallel usage checker
     based on the Omega
test, improved the effectiveness of
     Tock's test suite, developed more
efficient tree traversals
     using generic programming \– and
more besides! In
     this fringe session, we will describe our recent
work on
     Tock, discuss our plans for the project, and show how it
can
     be of use to other process-oriented programming researchers."
