This paper describes a high‐level programming system for constructing vector and array processor based software involving the parallel language Actus. The system functions on a cross‐computer basis where a programmer develops Actus programs in a form that can be tested and transferred to the chosen supercomputer. The principles involved are, however, applicable to other similar block‐structured high‐level languages.
