SIGMA(ID:349/sig011)

BESM Macroprocessing system 

alternate simple view
Country: Russian Federation
Designed 1968
Published: 1968
Genus: Macroassemblers
Sammet category: String and List Processing

Novosibirsk. For the BESM-6, M-220 and Minsk-22.

Also written SYGMA (but really Cyrillic)

for SYmbolic Generator and Macro-Assembler, but also for SIGMA, since it was part of a system that included Alpha and Beta

Macroprocessor described by Brown as "Something of a cross between GPM and WISP"
