The Univerisity of Oslo have a public domain version for
a range of computers. I have included their README file below.
The compiler is called cim, and it translates the Simula code into C,
so you need a C compiler. Debugging was not supported the last time
I tried the compiler (about a year ago), but this may have been
fixed now.

There are also some simula related stuff in pub/simbook (examples from 
Kirkerud book on Simula), and the file pub/Simulatools.tar.Z
(texttools, promptools, filetools and settools).

Older versions is located in the sub directory old.
Mail a request to cim@ifi.uio.no if you whant other architectures
to be recompiled.
