     Prof. J. Field of Electrical Engineering Department  of
     the  University  of Waterloo will speak on ``High Level
     Language Machines''.

     ROOM:              MC 5158

     ABSTRACT

     A high level language machine ``executes''  the  source
     program  as  written.   It does not require a compiler,
     linker, loader etc.  The advantages of such  a  machine
     are  (1)  elimination  of much system software develop-
     ment, (2) increased performance due to eliminating  the
     compilation  step  and  (3)  source language debugging.
     The problems are (1) managing the  association  between
     symbolic  names  and actual data and (2) efficient flow
     control handling.  The approach being  investigated  is
     the  use of a three stage machine that performs succes-
     sive transformations on the source program.  The appli-
     cation to Pascal will be described.
