The process of transporting Brinch Hansen's implementation of Concurrent PASCAL to another minicomputer is described. Applicable porting strategies are discussed with emphasis on the design decisions made for a specific transportation. Important design decisions include the use of a virtual code interpreter and implementation in an operating system environment. The problems of this transportation are illustrated with accompanying suggestions for a more portable system.
