Device drivers for the INMOS iserver and for the transputer's physical and virtual links are included in the package. C EXECUTIVE is a multi-tasking, ROMable kernel already available for many CISC and RISC processors. It provides the transputer with a general-purpose interrupt mechanism and a deterministic pre-emptive scheduler. Multiprocessor systems may be configured with tasks on separate processors communicating via virtual link drivers. The package supports all current transputers and has been designed with a view to the H1. An optional DOS compatible file system, CE-DOSFILE, is available, providing device drivers for SCSI, memory and INMOS iserver disks. This is a brief summary for general e-mail.
