The implementation of Algol W on a Burroughs B6700 computer : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Computer Science at Massey University

Abstract

This thesis describes an implementation of a revised version of ALGOL W on a Burroughs B6700 computer, and was written so that excerpts can be made to produce a user manual and a system documentation manual. The first part is a brief discussion of the language as implemented and discusses the main features of the language and the differences from ALGOL 60. The remainder of the thesis gives a detailed description of the compiler.
