The first International Conference highlighted advances in applications software, both in numerical
applications (including CFD, FE, Molecular Modelling) and non-numerical applications (including image processing,
robotics).
Accompanying the Conference was the largest exhibition so far of Transputer products with suppliers from
UK, Europe and the USA being present.
The Conference and exhibition were organised by the SERC/DTI Transputer Initiative.
The Conference was preceded by a half-day tutorial on Transputer Applications aimed
at senior managers and researchers and showing the likely
future impact of Transputers.
