N2 - Occam is a programming language built on CSP, which for many years has been used for writing safety-critical systems used in space technology and at CERN among others. However, the language has not been developed or maintained for the last 25 years, which makes it difficult to maintain the programs which currently has a code base in Occam. As changing the entire code base for such systems will prove both expensive and time consuming, it is desirable to find an easy and secure way to translate Occam programs into another programming language.This paper lays the foundation of a transpiler from Occam to the newer programming language Go using Haskell. Go is a modern programming language which also implements many of the CSP principles found in Occam, making it a suitable target.The transpiler is implemented for a subset of Occam including only basic functionality, and is successful in translating simple programs from Occam to Go, showing that it is indeed possible to automatically translate Occam programs into Go.
