J. E. Sammet, Programming Languages, New York: Prentice-Hall, 1969; memory; private
correspondence; extensive research by Daniel Leeson (IBM), Brian Chapman (UKAEA),
Roy Nutt (CSC), Martin Greenfield (HIS), and Millie Price and Richard Ragan (CDC).
a The designation Backus et al. indicates the group identified in the
1957
WJCC paper's author list.
b Officially (from IBM files), this work was a straight conversion from the
704 implementation done by the Backus group. Medlock (private correspondence)
attributes the management of this work to Harry Bekish.
c A question mark indicates that the information is unknown. Readers are
invited to correct and/or update the list.
d Also later implemented on the Burroughs 5500, CDC 3600, and Univac 1108.
e Added in 2007 following personal communication from Stanley Hagstrom (PCC).
Based on pages 10-11 of Annals of the History of Computing, Volume 6, Number 1,
January 1984
Comments on this or any other of the Group's pages should be sent by e-mail to the
