for Kinematic Analysis Method

IBM 1965

Language for the kinematic analysis of mechanisms such as gears, cams, and linkages

Modelled after APT

"From a linkage description in KAM Language, the KAM program uses a storage-allocation technique described by Ross to form a tree-organized model of the linkage within computer memory"
