Can anyone provide pointers to reference material, sources, kits, etc. for the POP-11 language ? It's one of the languages offered by System Designers Software as part of their POPLOG environment (LISP and PROLOG being the others). I believe it originated in the U.K. On the surface it appears to be Pascal-like, but has pattern matching and list processing facilities as well. - mike g.

It was designed at the University of Edinborough. They do a lot of AI work there. You could try contacting their computer department directly, or the local DEC office might be able to help. Try OSPREY::STUBBS (if he is still there). Dave | |||||

That's "EDINBURGH", Dave... you've been in France too long. Is POP-11 a PDP-11 implementation of POP-2? Nigel (Graduate of Edinburgh University, 1976) | |||||

Yes, it's the same thing (or maybe just a different way of writing "2", as in microvax :-) ). We used to have a copy of it in the Epsom office 11/45, but I doubt it is still there, since that would have been before you graduated. Dave | |||||
