Barnett & Futrelle, Solid State and Molecular Theory Group, Department of Physics, MIT, 1962.



Syntax-directed compiler. Anticipated some of the pattern systematics in SNOBOL and ICES. Used by Farber in early pattern experiments as well, (Ref Bailey) so may have had influence on SNOBOL

Barnett developed Shadow into Snap and then later PRISM
