An experiment in high-level microprogramming
(University of St Andrews, 1977) - Thesis,
This thesis describes an experiment in developing a true high-level microprogramming language for the Burroughs B1700 series of computers. Available languages for machine description both at a behavioural level and at a ...
Some problems in the theory and application of the methods of numerical taxonomy
(University of St Andrews, 1970) - Thesis,
Several of the methods of numerical taxonomy are compared
and shown to be variants of a tripartite grouping procedure
associated with a generalised intercluster similarity function
involving ten computational parameters. ...
Translation of APL to other high-level languages
(University of St Andrews, 1975) - Thesis,
The thesis describes a method of translating the computer language APL to other high-level languages. Particular reference is made to FORTRAN, a language widely available to computer users. Although gaining in popularity, ...
An extensible system for the automatic transmission of a class of programming languages
(University of St Andrews, 1975) - Thesis,
This thesis deals with the topic of programming linguistics. A survey of the current techniques in the fields of syntax analysis and semantic synthesis is given. An extensible automatic translator has been described which ...
On the development of Algol
(University of St Andrews, 1979) - Thesis,
The thesis outlines the major problems in the design of high level programming languages. The complexity of these languages has caused the user problems in intellectual manageability. Part of this complexity is caused by ...
The effective application of syntactic macros to language extensibility
(University of St Andrews, 1978) - Thesis,
Starting from B M Leavenworth's proposal for syntactic macros, we describe an extension language LE with which one may extend a base Language LB for defining a new programming language LP. The syntactic macro processor is ...
