%T Native Code Generation using the Transterpreter. %A Christian L. Jacobsen, Damian J. Dimmich, Matthew C. Jadud %E Peter H. Welch, Jon Kerridge, Frederick R. M. Barnes %B Communicating Process Architectures 2006 %X We are interested in languages that provide powerful abstractions for concurrency and parallelism that execute everywhere, efficiently. Currently, the existing runtime environments for the occam\-pi programming language provide either one of these features (portability) or some semblance of the other (performance). We believe that both can be achieved through the careful generation of C from occam\-pi, and demonstrate that this is possible using the Transterpreter, a portable interpreter for occam\-pi, as our starting point.
