%X The TMS320C40 (\[rs]C40) is a transputer\-like parallel
   processor from Texas Instruments. It is an order of
   magnitude faster than the T800 transputer. Parallel C is a
   popular programming environment for the transputer. The
   properties of both the \[rs]C40 and Parallel C are described
   and the significant differences between the \[rs]C40 and the
   transputer are pointed out. The techniques used to overcome
   these obstacles to porting Parallel C are presented. These
   include building a new real\-time kernel and reusing
   existing software packages from industry and academia. The
   suitability of the \[rs]C40 for parallel applications is
   discussed.
