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.

Both had semantics similar to C but a syntax based on Burroughs ' ALGOL.

Implements tag-based architecture and ALGOL as system language like the Burroughs large systems.

However, a bright young student named Donald Knuth had previously implemented ALGOL 58 on an earlier Burroughs machine during the three months of his summer break.

The Burroughs ALGOL compiler was very fast — this impressed the Dutch scientist Edsger Dijkstra when he submitted a program to be compiled at the B5000 Pasadena plant.

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.

An implementation for the Burroughs 220 called BALGOL evolved along its own lines as well, but retained much of ALGOL 58's original character.

ESPOL ( short for Executive Systems Problem Oriented Language ) was a superset of ALGOL 60 that provided capabilities of what would later be known as Mohols, machine oriented high order languages, such as interrupting a processor on a multiprocessor system ( the Burroughs large systems were multiprocessor processor systems ).

Originally written in 1961 in ESPOL ( Executive Systems Programming Language ), which itself was an extension of Burroughs Extended ALGOL, in the 1970s it was converted to NEWP, a better structured, more robust, and more secure form of ESPOL.

Other than the operating system itself, all system software was coded in BPL ( Burroughs Programming Language ), a systems programming language derived from ALGOL and Large System's ESPOL systems language.

This aspect of the story was retained in the subsequent comic versions, unlike the Burroughs ’ comics adaptations.

Greystoke rejected the common film portrayal of Tarzan as a simpleton that was established by Johnny Weissmuller's 1930s renditions, reasserting Burroughs ' characterization of an articulate and intelligent human being, not unlike the so-called " new look " films that Sy Weintraub produced in the 1960s.

John Burroughs, a best-selling nature author, was the official scribe of the expedition.

Burroughs became the youngest elected official in the state of Maryland.

The Burroughs Corporation developed three highly innovative architectures, based on the design philosophy of " language directed design ".

* Burroughs produced the B1700 or " small systems " computers that were designed to be microprogrammed, with each process potentially getting its own virtual machine designed to be the best match to the programming language chosen for the program being run.

William Burroughs used the cut-up technique developed by Brion Gysin to remix language in the 1960s.

Extremely controversial in both its subject matter and its use of obscene language ( something Burroughs recognized and intended ), the book was banned in Boston and Los Angeles in the United States, and several European publishers were harassed.

Control is the main theme of the novel, and Burroughs attempts to use language to break down the walls of culture, the biggest control machine.

" As Burroughs battles with the self and what is human, he finds that language is the only way to maintain dominance over the " powerful instruments of control ," which are the most prevalent enemies of human society.

If Ulysses is the story of a day, Finnegans Wake is a night epic, partaking in the logic of dreams and written in an invented language which parodies English, Irish and Latin and is called Joycespeak, deemed virtually unreadable at the time of its release, it became a cult classic with the emergence of the beat generation, particularly William S. Burroughs, in the 1950s and 1960s.

The B6500 and similar Burroughs computers performed bound checking via hardware, irrespective of which computer language had been compiled to produce the machine code.

Fantasy writer Edgar Rice Burroughs invented a fictitious great ape language called Mangani in his Tarzan books.

The Burroughs Large System ( B5000 and successors ) were unique in that they were designed with the expectation that all software, including system software, would be written in an HLL rather than in assembly language, which was a unique and innovative approach in 1961.

According to Burroughs ' original concept, the apes who raised Tarzan actually had a rudimentary vocal language, and this is portrayed in the film.

The early programming language was known as BALGOL and was implemented for the Burroughs 220 machine.

Work Flow Language, or WFL (" wiffle ") is the process control language for the Burroughs large systems, including the Unisys ClearPath / MCP series, and their operating system Master Control Program.

They were manufactured by Burroughs Corporation in Pasadena, California, United States, and were aimed straight at the business world with an instruction set optimized for the COBOL programming language.

It shared many architectural features with the MCP of Burroughs ' Large Systems stack machines, but was entirely different inside, and was coded in assembler, not some high level language.

In the ape language used in the Burroughs ' Tarzan novels, " Tarmangani " means " Great White Ape ".

This work is significant for fans of Burroughs, in that it describes his idea of language as a virus and his philosophy of the cut-up technique.

His publication and design of the classic audio-visual magazines Cinquième Saison and OU between 1958 and 1974, each issue containing recordings as well as texts, images, screenprints and multiples, brought together international contemporary writers and artists such as members of Lettrisme and Fluxus, Jiri Kolar, Ian Hamilton Finlay, Tom Phillips, Brion Gysin, William S. Burroughs and many others, as well as bringing the work of survivors from earlier generations such as Raoul Hausmann and Marcel Janco to a fresh audience.

Trilogies can also be connected in less obvious ways, such as The Nova Trilogy of novels by William S. Burroughs, each written using Brion Gysin's cut-up technique.

The book is a series of diary entries by each of the four main characters: Zebadiah John Carter, programmer Dejah Thoris " Deety " Burroughs Carter, her mathematics professor father Jacob Burroughs, and an off-campus socialite Hilda Corners.

Among the Giorno-released recordings was You're the Guy I Want to Share My Money With, a double-album shared with Giorno and William Burroughs ( the original release had one LP side for each artist, with the fourth side triple-grooved, one for each, so you'd get a different one, depending on where you put the needle down ).

Prior to the release of Big Science, Anderson returned to Giorno Poetry Systems to record the album You're the Guy I Want to Share My Money With ; Anderson recorded one side of the 2-LP set, with William S. Burroughs and John Giorno recording a side each, and the fourth side featured a separate groove for each artist.

Their first two ministers, James Bayley ( 1673 – 79 ) and George Burroughs ( 1680 – 83 ), stayed only a few years each, departing after the congregation failed to pay their full rate.

Salinger, William Faulkner, Margaret Laurence, Kurt Vonnegut, Mordecai Richler, Edgar Rice Burroughs and Isaac Asimov also ' crossover ' with each other, linking different characters and settings together over a number of different works.

The first two ministers, James Bayley ( 1673 – 79 ) and George Burroughs ( 1680 – 83 ), stayed only a few years each, departing after issues with the congregation failing to pay their full rate.

The association maintains the John Burroughs Sanctuary in Esopus, New York, a 170 acre plot of land surrounding Slabsides, and awards a medal each year to " the author of a distinguished book of natural history ".

Ace published no hardcover books, only cheap paperbacks, which sold for very little ; Burroughs earned less than a cent royalty on each purchase.

* The LP You're the Guy I Want to Share My Money With ( 1981 ), featuring a " three-track " side: each track contained a different recording of the title song, alternately performed by Laurie Anderson, William S. Burroughs, or John Giorno.
