In this thesis, an experimental runtime system for utilizingthe computational power of a multi-computer environment is presented.Through simple benchmark tests it is shown how some taskswill have a considerate speed-up compared to running on a single computer.An outline for designing languages and compilers suited for the runtimeis also explored and discussed, and it is shown how the system,with some extensions, would be well suited for utilizing the sparecomputational power in a multi-computer environment.This also holds, with some extra considerations, for a real-time application.
