There is a paper on occam [sic] by David May of Inmos
in the April 1983 (vol. 18, num. 4) SIGPLAN Notices, p. 69 .. 79.
It is written as a tutorial on the language.
It should be more useful than the glossy stuff the marketeers send out,
and probably has more technical content than the article in Electronics
(which I admit I haven't seen).  

Contrary to the usual "initial cap only" convention
for displaying the names of languages named after real people,
Inmos appears to prefer "occam", i.e., all lower case.
