Abstract

SAM I (Structured Architecture Machine) is the prototype of a new VLSI chip set based computer. SAM was designed with High-Level Language interpretation and parallel processing in mind. SAM's first language is a subset of APL. Our paper introduces the SAM I architecture and discusses some unique opportunities for APL implementation made possible by this architecture.
