Abstract

This paper introduces an Internet-based development system for transputers, which combines an application development framework with a runtime support to run applications on real hardware. The key idea of the Xputer Multimedia Development System (XMDS) is to provide worldwide, platform-independent access to transputer software and hardware. Therefore, XMDS´s main system runs on the World Wide Web and is implemented in the Java language to run on all common Web browsers.
