%X This paper describes a preprocessor which is designed to
   make the description of parallel processes of Occam easier.
   It takes a source program written in ordinary Occam language
   and a description of the configuration of the hardware on
   which it is intended to run. The programmer need not
   consider the particular hardware structure. The preprocessor
   assigns each process to an appropriate processor and
   produces the Occam program with process\-to\-processor
   allocation statements. Design philosophy, implementation
   details and some results are shown.
