%X The transputer is a flexible processor, very well suited for
   applications where modularity and distributed operation are
   prime requirements, like in process control. Nevertheless,
   its basic FIFO\-scheduling algorithm, makes its application
   for real\-time processing quite difficult. This problem has
   now been solved by the development of a preemptive
   scheduling algorithm. This algorithm was used to port an
   existing real\-time kernel to the Transputer. In addition,
   by taking account of the specific nature of the Transputer,
   much better performance and flexibility have been obtained.
