I have been looking into operating systems that might be suitable for
implementation on a bunch of transputers that *do* have shared memory...
It seems like the best choices might be a variation on MACH or
perhaps V or maybe even AMOEBA, even though SYSV compatibility migh
be tough. I am looking for small and fast and modular... could anyone
out there render an opinion... ? I do not, unfortunately, have any
parallel operating system to play with at the moment, so evaluations
just from the researchpapers are a bit difficult. I am currently 
planning on using the T800 links for OS level communication and
a distributed Linda type facility for Users...

I would appreciate any comments...
Thanx in advance...
