A multiprocessor system for data acquisition and analysis in low energy nuclear physics has been realized at the Laboratorio Nazionale del Sud. the system is built around Camac, VME-bus and MacIntosh PC. A multiprocessor software has been developed, using RTF, Macsys and Cern cross-software. The execution of several programs which run on several VME-CPU's and on an external PC, is coordinated by a mail box protocol. No operating system is used on the VME-CPU's.
