Abstract

Our agency plans to use the Ada programming language as a vehicle to transport a locally written inquiry system from Burroughs' equipment to another vendor's hardware. This is being done in the following manner. A bootstrap Ada translator has been written in Pascal to generate Burroughs' ALGOL. The Ada translator will be rewritten into Ada from ALGOL and executed on the current Burroughs' machine. When the new hardware is selected, the Ada translator will be retargeted to generate an efficient language on that machine, thereby transporting the inquiry system. The Ada translator will be discarded for an Ada compiler on the new system.
