  abstract= "In this paper we explore the design of a database machine
     that is already being implemented using T series transputers
     to determine the benefits of using the T9000 series
     transputer togeher eith its associated routing chip, the
     C104, and occam91. The language occam91, a superset of
     occam2, contains language features that directly support the
     exploitation of hardware features that have been
     incorporated into the T9000 transputer. We briefly introduce
     the underlying design of the database machine. The way in
     which the C104 routing chips can be used is then described
     in conjunction with a planar approach to the interconnection
     of nodes in the machine. Finally, we give fragments of
     occam91 that demonstrated how its features can be used in
     two different parts of the database machine. The first
     application considers the problems of allocating resources
     to a user query and the second looks at how recovery
     features can be specified."
