In simulating complex phenomena by Cellular Automata (CA) programming model performances assume a crucial role. The efficient exploitation of intrinsic parallelism is a must for this kind of applications. The Cellular Automata Network (CAN) model, that is an extension of the CA classical model due to the introduction of the network abstraction between automata nodes, offer another parallelism source besides to the classical CA parallelism source. In order to exploit efficiently this opportunities tools and systems must be designed. In this paper we deal with the CAN compiler system components description and features designed ad hoc.
