SOL A Simulation Oriented Language, was described by Messrs. Knuth and McNeley of Burroughs Corp. in 1964. In 1968 a complete 2-pass compiler system was developed under Government contract by Messrs. Page and Miller of Patterson-Smith, Inc. Since then a number of features have been added to the SOL language, making it a very powerful tool for discrete simulations. SOLPASS has found a broad field of applications within the USAECOM Laboratories served by the Burroughs B5500 installation at Fort Monmouth. The Simulation System has been implemented to make most efficient use o f the remote access system to the B5500 computer for compilation, debugging, test runs and short production runs. This arrangement has increased the programming efficiency to the extent that discrete simulation models can now be implemented within a fraction of the time previously needed. Discrete simulations of large scale communication systems and control systems have been performed successfully using SOLPASS.
