 One of the most recent commercial developments has emerged from the firm XMOS, which has developed a family of embedded multi-core multi-threaded processors which resonate strongly with the transputer and Inmos.There is an emerging class of multicore/manycore processors taking the approach of a "network on a chip" (NoC), such as the Cell processor, Adapteva Epiphany architecture, Tilera, etc.The transputer and Inmos helped establish Bristol, UK, as a hub for microelectronic design and innovation.
