BLISS is a system programming language developed at Carnegie Mellon University by W. A. Wulf, D. B. Russell, and A. N. Habermann around 1970.

DEC developed and maintained BLISS compilers for the PDP-10, PDP-11, DEC Alpha, DEC PRISM, Intel IA-32, Intel IA-64, and VAX, and used it heavily in-house into the 1980s ; most of the utility programs for the VMS operating system were written in BLISS-32.

The computer automation system ( BLISS ) made for the use of Bilkent University Library is now being used by many other Turkish university libraries, again by permission of Bilkent University.

Experiments with hardware support in high-level languages in the late 1960s led to such languages as PL / S, BLISS, BCPL, and extended ALGOL for Burroughs large systems being used for low-level programming.

T's purpose is to test the thesis developed by Steele and Sussman in their series of papers about Scheme: that Scheme may be used as the basis for a practical programming language of exceptional expressive power, and that implementations of Scheme could perform better than other Lisp systems, and competitively with implementations of programming languages, such as C and BLISS, which are usually considered to be inherently more efficient than Lisp on conventional machine architectures.

BLISS is a typeless block-structured language based on expressions rather than statements, and includes constructs for exception handling, coroutines, and macros.

The BLISS language has the following characteristics:

Nestled in this part are the BLISS projects and to the north, the MAR settlement project, which when completely developed will be a source of livelihood and food supplies for Central Luzon.

Since algorithms are platform-independent ( i. e. a given algorithm can be implemented in an arbitrary programming language on an arbitrary computer running an arbitrary operating system ), there are significant drawbacks to using an empirical approach to gauge the comparative performance of a given set of algorithms.

Researchers at Bell developed radio astronomy, the transistor, the laser, information theory, the UNIX operating system, the C programming language and the C ++ programming language.

The need for a system to simplify this experience, from command line interpreters to programming languages was an area of intense research during the 1960s and 70s.

Practical computer systems divide software systems into three major classes: system software, programming software and application software, although the distinction is arbitrary, and often blurred.

C was therefore useful for many applications that had formerly been coded in assembly language, such as in system programming.

Like most imperative languages in the ALGOL tradition, C has facilities for structured programming and allows lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations.

Cyclone is designed to avoid buffer overflows and other vulnerabilities that are endemic in C programs, without losing the power and convenience of C as a tool for system programming.

A computer program that runs in a distributed system is called a distributed program, and distributed programming is the process of writing such programs.

The word distributed in terms such as " distributed system ", " distributed programming ", and " distributed algorithm " originally referred to computer networks where individual computers were physically distributed within some geographical area.

Dhrystone is a synthetic computing benchmark program developed in 1984 by Reinhold P. Weicker intended to be representative of system ( integer ) programming.

Erlang ( ) is a general-purpose concurrent, garbage-collected programming language and runtime system.

A program written in the form of expert system receives all the specific benefits of expert system, among others things it can be developed by anyone without computer training and without programming languages.

Stallman notes that this action will promote rather than hinder the progression of technology, since " it means that much wasteful duplication of system programming effort will be avoided.

Functional programming has its roots in lambda calculus, a formal system developed in the 1930s to investigate function definition, function application, and recursion.

Most general purpose functional programming languages allow unrestricted recursion and are Turing complete, which makes the halting problem undecidable, can cause unsoundness of equational reasoning, and generally requires the introduction of inconsistency into the logic expressed by the language's type system.

A procedural programming language without type checking, Forth features both interactive execution of commands ( making it suitable as a shell for systems that lack a more formal operating system ) and the ability to compile sequences of commands for later execution.

Forth evolved from Charles H. Moore's personal programming system, which had been in continuous development since 1958.

The Canon Cat also used Forth for its system programming.

I didn't like writing programs, and so, when I was working on the IBM 701, writing programs for computing missile trajectories, I started work on a programming system to make it easier to write programs.

Santa Fe railroad used MAPPER to develop a system, in a project that was an early example of 4GL, rapid prototyping, and programming by users.

On programming the system, either by the pilot or groundcrew, a number of control movement steps are automatically performed.

Getting started with OpenGL programming while using GLUT often takes only a few lines of code and does not require knowledge of operating system – specific windowing APIs.

However, its use is not strictly limited to the GNU operating system ; it is a portable debugger that runs on many Unix-like systems and works for many programming languages, including Ada, C, C ++, Objective-C, Free Pascal, Fortran, Java and partially others.

Verbal and adverbial elements too participated in each epic diction, but it is for the present sufficient to mark the large nominal and adjectival supply of semantic near-equivalents, and to designate the members of any system of equivalents as basic formulas of the poetic language.

The pronunciation of a language often evolves independently of its writing system, and writing systems have been borrowed for languages they were not designed for, so the degree to which letters of an alphabet correspond to phonemes of a language varies greatly from one language to another and even within a single language.

Korzybski's work argued that human knowledge of the world is limited both by the human nervous system and by the structure of language.

Human beings cannot experience the world directly, but only through their " abstractions " ( nonverbal impressions or " gleanings " derived from the nervous system, and verbal indicators expressed and derived from language ).

The Fa ' asamoa is the language and customs, and the Fa ' amatai the protocols of the " fono " ( council ) and the chiefly system.

In the 1960s linguist William Stokoe created the first writing system for a sign language, the so-called Stokoe notation, which he designed specifically for ASL.

The Ainu language has had no system of writing, and has historically been transliterated by the Japanese kana or the Russian Cyrillic.

For example a two dimensional array with three rows and four columns might provide access to the element at the 2nd row and 4th column by the expression: ( in a row major language ) and ( in a column major language ) in the case of a zero-based indexing system.

A person who has mastered great amounts of knowledge of the grammars, rules, & language of an art-form are adepts ( Daksha ), whereas those who have worked through the whole system and journeyed ahead of these to become a law unto themselves is called a Mahana.

It holds that language is a complicated belief system whose only connection to reality is an abstraction of experience.

The BASIC language was also central to the HP Time-Shared BASIC system in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and the Pick operating system.

Bulgarian, along with the closely related Macedonian language ( collectively forming the East South Slavic languages ), has several characteristics that set it apart from all other Slavic languages: changes include the elimination of case declension, the development of a suffixed definite article ( see Balkan language area ) and the lack of a verb infinitive ; but it retains and has further developed the Proto-Slavic verb system.

During the Middle Bulgarian period, the language underwent dramatic changes, losing the Slavonic case system, but preserving the rich verb system ( while the development was exactly the opposite in other Slavic languages ) and developing a definite article.

Kante created N ’ Ko in response to what he felt were beliefs that Africans were a " cultureless people " since prior to this time there had been no indigenous African writing system for his language.

An attempt by the French government to incorporate the independent Breton-language immersion schools ( called Diwan ) into the state education system was blocked by the French Constitutional Council on the grounds that, as the 1992 amendment to the Constitution of the 5th Republic states that French is the language of the Republic, no other language may be used as a language of instruction in state schools.
