%X This paper describes the OCCNIX multiprocessor environment,
   that enables OCCAM program development and testing, on
   clusters of UNIX workstations. Linked binary level
   interpreters form a virtual Transputer network that uses the
   TCP/IP client\-server model and provides hardware
   independent multiple platform access in a similar way to the
   recently released JAVA. Results show a single processor
   performance that is half that of an actual Transputer and a
   four\-processor speedup of 0.78. The system also has the
   ability to run development tools such as the ISPY network
   debugger.
