    • An experiment in high-level microprogramming 

      Sommerville, John F. (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 ...
    • An extensible system for the automatic transmission of a class of programming languages

      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 ...
    • The effective application of syntactic macros to language extensibility 

      Campbell, William R. (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 ...
    • Translation of APL to other high-level languages

      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, ...
    • On the development of Algol 

      Morrison, Ronald (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 ...
