Implementation of a structured PL/I subset compiler

The thesis describes the design and implementation of a PL/I subset compiler which produces a hypothetical stack code as output. The compiler was based on a Pascal compiler developed by N. Wirth and U. Amman of Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule, Zurich, and was itself written in the Pascal langua...

description The thesis describes the design and implementation of a PL/I subset compiler which produces a hypothetical stack code as output. The compiler was based on a Pascal compiler developed by N. Wirth and U. Amman of Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule, Zurich, and was itself written in the Pascal language. PL/I programs using the compiler can now be compiled and executed (interpretively) on the UNIVAC 1106 computer at U.C.T. The compiler was designed mainly as a teaching system. Its lesson is that structured programming is a powerful technique which facilitated its design and implementation.
