%X The structure and construction of parallel compilers that
   run on a network of transputers is discussed. The compilers
   are automatically generated from an attribute grammar
   definition of the source language. This work illustrates
   that parallelism can also be used in non\-numeric
   computations. As part of implementing parallel compilers we
   have constructed a general message passing kernel for
   transputers. This kernel can also be used in other
   applications. First results indicate that parallel compiling
   on transputers is feasible and that 4 to 16 transputers can
   be used in parallel compilers.
