This book examines the evolution of the Ada/Ed system, the first validated translator for the Ada programming language, from its initial prototype to its current production-quality version. The author takes an in-depth look at the challenges involved in translating a very high-level language (VHLL) such as SETL into a lower-level language like C. The book discusses the specific solutions that were chosen for Ada/Ed-C, the performance of the new system, and some aspects of SETL that can hinder rather than facilitate prototyping.Ultimately, this book demonstrates the advantages of using executable prototypes in constructing software systems and endorses the use of wide-spectrum languages for all phases of software design and implementation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
