Java came to be used for server-side programming, and bytecode virtual machines became popular again in commercial settings with their promise of " Write once, run anywhere " ( UCSD Pascal had been popular for a time in the early 1980s ).

UCSD Pascal branched off Pascal-P2, where Kenneth Bowles utilized it to create the interpretive UCSD p-System.

In the early 1980s, UCSD Pascal was ported to the Apple II and Apple III computers to provide a structured alternative to the BASIC interpreters that came with the machines.

* Softech Microsystems UCSD System with UCSD Pascal

This term is applied both generically to all such machines ( such as the Java Virtual Machine and MATLAB precompiled code ), and to specific implementations, the most famous being the p-Machine of the Pascal-P system, particularly the UCSD Pascal implementation.

The UCSD p-System, developed at The University of California, San Diego, was a self-compiling and self-hosted operating system based on p-code optimized for generation by the Pascal programming language.

UCSD Pascal was a Pascal programming language system that ran on the UCSD p-System, a portable, highly machine-independent operating system.

UCSD Pascal was first released in 1978.

UCSD Pascal was developed at The University of California, San Diego Institute for Information Systems in 1978 to provide students with a common operating system that could run on any of the then available microcomputers as well as campus DEC PDP-11 minicomputers.

The UCSD Pascal p-Machine was optimized for the new small microcomputers with addressing restricted to 16-bit ( only 64KB of memory ).

James Gosling cites UCSD Pascal as a key influence ( along with the Smalltalk virtual machine ) on the design of the Java virtual machine.

The UCSD p-code was optimized for execution of the Pascal programming language.

The UCSD Pascal compiler was distributed as part of a portable operating system, the p-System.

He based UCSD Pascal on the Pascal-P2 release of the portable compiler from Zurich.

UCSD introduced two features that were important improvements on the original Pascal: variable length strings, and " units " of independently compiled code ( an idea included into the then-evolving Ada programming language ).

Niklaus Wirth credits the p-System, and UCSD Pascal in particular, with popularizing Pascal.

The Pascal dialect of UCSD Pascal came from the subset of Pascal implemented in Pascal-P2, which was not designed to be a full implementation of the language, but rather " the minimum subset that would self-compile ", to fit its function as a bootstrap kit for Pascal compilers.

Crick died of colon cancer on 28 July 2004 at the University of California San Diego ( UCSD ) Thornton Hospital in La Jolla ; he was cremated and his ashes were scattered into the Pacific Ocean.

Robinson gave the novella in rough form to Ursula K. Le Guin to read and edit while he was enrolled in her writing workshop at UCSD in the spring of 1977.

When the original IBM-PC was created in 1980, there were three leading competing operating systems: PC-DOS, CP / M-86, and UCSD p-System, while Xenix was added in 1983-1984.

The San Diego campus was founded as a marine station in 1912 and became UCSD in 1959.

It was developed at the University of California, San Diego ( UCSD ).

UCSD p-System ( Version IV, supplied by SofTech ) was one of three operating systems ( along with PC-DOS and CP / M-86 ) that IBM offered for its original IBM PC ; but the p-System never sold very well for the IBM PC, mainly because of a lack of applications and because it was more expensive than the other choices.

Urs Ammann, a student of Niklaus Wirth, originally presented a p-code in his PhD thesis, from which the UCSD implementation was derived, the Zurich Pascal-P implementation.

The speed of these COM executable files was a revelation for developers whose only prior experience programming microcomputers was with interpreted BASIC or UCSD Pascal, which compiled to p-code.

Somewhat in the fashion of UCSD Pascal it was implemented via ' compilation ' into an intermediate representation.

It was also the basis for programming classes taught by Jef and Jon in the UCSD Visual Arts Dept.

He later hired his former student Bill Atkinson from UCSD to work at Apple, along with Andy Hertzfeld and Burrell Smith from the Apple Service Department, which was located in the same building as the Publications Department.

He and his student assistant, Albert Cooper ( also likely based on the author and his experiences at UCSD ), discover that the noise is coming in bursts timed to form Morse Code.

Apple Pascal is a language and operating system based on the UCSD Pascal system.

Also available for programming the HP 9800 series was a bootable development environment based on UCSD Pascal, but with a compiler which would generate fast, native Motorola 68000 object code, instead of the slower p-code typical of most UCSD Pascal implementations.

Like many other p-code machines, the UCSD p-Machine is a stack machine, which means that most instructions take their operands from the stack, and place results back on the stack.

According to Aaron Marc Stein in his introduction to the 1977 edition, published by University Extension of UCSD: " At the risk of bringing down on his memory the wrath of the Baker Street Irregulars it must be recorded that Bentley had reservations about even the Conan Doyle originals.

* Animation showing the spread of the Code Red worm on 19 July 2001, by Jeff Brown, UCSD, and David Moore, CAIDA at SDSC

During the 1960s, led by Scripps Institution of Oceanography director Roger Revelle, it formed the nucleus for the creation of the University of California, San Diego ( UCSD ) on a bluff overlooking Scripps Institution.

While at UCSD, Reynolds has taught courses on Music Notation, Extended Vocal Techniques, Late Beethoven Works, Text ( in relation to the Red Act Project and Greek Drama ), Collaboration ( co-taught with Steven Schick ), Extending Varese ( also co-taught with Steven Schick ), and the Perils of Large Scale Form ( co-taught with Chinary Ung ), musical analysis, as well as private and group composition lessons.

Though his focus has been on the Music Department at UCSD, Reynolds has occupied visiting positions at various universities: the University of Illinois, Brooklyn College of the CUNY, Yale University, Amherst College, and Harvard University.

* Your Brain on Androids UCSD news release about human brain and the uncanny valley.

A study conducted by emergency medicine physicians at the University of California, San Diego ( UCSD ) Medical Center showed no lasting effects of the Taser on healthy test subjects.

The UCSD p-System supported a complete student programming environment on early 8-bit microprocessors with poor instruction sets and little RAM, by compiling to a virtual stack machine rather than to the actual hardware.

His former students include bass virtuosos Mark Dresser and Karl E. H. Seigfried ; Dresser now holds Turetzky's former UCSD faculty position, while Seigfried is working with Turetzky on the latter's autobiography.

UCSD Pascal ( along with the Smalltalk virtual machine ) was a key influence on the design of the Java virtual machine, as is cited by James Gosling.

Physically, SDSC is located on the east end of Eleanor Roosevelt College on the campus of UCSD.

Approximately in 1980-1982 period, there was a competition to see who could move from the most popular interpreted Pascal on microcomputers, the UCSD series, to true compilation.

The UCSD people announced they were working on a " native " compiler that would essentially would convert UCSD from an interpreter to a compiled, native system in one step.
