for Pascal-Ford or Pascal-Fixed point

Pascal extended to include fixed-point arithmetic, Ford Scientific Research

"Pascal-F [is] a dialect of Pascal developed at the Ford Motor Company?s Scientific Research Laboratories. The language is designed to be used in the building of reliable real-time microprocessor control programs. These programs run stand-alone in dedicated microprocessors, and deal directly with hardware interfaces. Pascal-F provides hardware interface and multiprogramming primitives similar to those of Modula I. The Pascal-F Verifier processes the same language processed by the Pascal-F compiler."
