The transterpreter is computer software, an interpreter for the transputer, is a virtual machine for the programming language occam-π (occam-pi), and a portable runtime for the KRoC compiler. It is designed for education and research in concurrency and robotics.[1][2][3][4][5] The transterpreter was developed at the University of Kent.
