We extend the refinement calculus to permit the derivation of programs in the Bulk Synchronous Parallelism (BSP) style. This demon* strates that formal approaches developed for sequential computing can be generalised to (some) parallel computing environments, and may be useful for managing some of the details of programming in such situations.
