CLPP(ID:7996/)

Cellular list procssing language 

alternate simple view
Country: United States
Designed 1963


for Cellular List-Processing Program.

Pioneering Bioinformatic system developed by Stahl et al at Oregon State 1963-1969, actually given a formal name around 1965. It was the source language for the TASP (Turing Automaton Simulation Program) and ran on the SDS-920 computer.

It had pattern matching capabilities in 2-dimensional structures as well as references to morphogenesis (after Turing's celebrated paper). Involved the creation of organic algorithms to represent (eg) genetic adaptation, so possibly the first use of such tools in computing. (Certainly it is the first language to feature these as a top level concept).

List processing lanugage with special facilities for cell simulation, based on Post and Turing systems, with extra features from COMIT and IPL.
