  abstract= "Computer simulation of systems (e.g. magnetic fusion,
     nuclear power plants, weather forecasting, ...) will have a
     strong impact on theoretical and experimental research in
     the future, because experiments on real systems are
     impossible due to the danger, the cost or the duration of
     the experiment. Computer simulation of a system is therefore
     an attractive alternative. Generally, large and complicated
     systems are simulated, so this requires an enormous amount
     of computing power. In this paper, we describe the
     possibility to use a home-built multitransputersystem, The
     Computing Tower, for system simulation and methods to
     implement a block-structured simulation language on this
     system the most efficient way."
