Country: United States
Designed 1963
Published: 1965
Genus: True ALGOL60s
Sammet category: Specialised Languages

Automated Engineering Design (aka ALGOL Extended for Design).

A general purpose system based in Algol 60 with very powerful string and list processing facilities



MIT System Laboratory ca 1965 by a team led by Douglas T. Ross, and including J E Rodriguez (dataflow pioneer). Systems language for IBM 7090 and 360, an extension of ALGOL-60 with records ("plexes"), pointers, and dynamic allocation. DYNAMO II was written in AED, as was the first BCPL compiler.
Sammet 1969 and 1978.
