In the late sixties, the definition of ALGOL 68 I 11 , for a long time called ALGOL X, reached some stability. It is at that period (1967) our team started the project of writing a compiler for that language. We had two goals in mind : (I) to make significant research in the field of compiler methodology, (2) to point out the special difficulties...

the Web; Mark Pesce and I answered. Only being able to afford one plane ticket, we sent
Mark to Geneva to present our Labyrinth prototype at the first-ever World Wide Web
Developers’ Conference. With typical bombast,...
This book begins with the basic principles of circuits, derives their analytic properties in both the time and frequency domains, and states and proves the two important theorems. It then develops an algorithmic method to design common and uncommon types of circuits, such as prototype filters, lumped delay lines, constant phase difference...
