THE SUBCOMMITTEE on Common Languages for Small Computers of the Joint Users Group, since renamed the Subcommittee on Programming Languages in Development and extended in scope, was formed in June, 1961, when it was felt that an effort had to be made to provide a common problem-oriented language for small computers. The year which has intervened since the formulation of SMALGOL has seen the initiation of a number of SMALGOL compilers on small computers. Many of these were not consciously patterned after the SMALGOL report, but were the results of realistic compromises with time schedules and memory capacity, and have resulted nevertheless in compilers which will have most of the limitations of SMALGOL.
