NBS FIPS Software Documentation NATL INST OF STAND & TECH AlllDt. ^7fl3fiE Computer Science National Bureau of Standards and Technology NBS Special Publication 500-94 NBS FIPS NBS Software Documentation PUBLICATIONS NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS The National Bureau of Standards' was established by an act ot Congress on March 3, 1901. The Bureau's overall goal is to strengthen and advance the Nation's science and technology and facilitate their effective application for public benefit. To this end, the Bureau conducts research and provides: (1) a basis for the Nation's physical measurement system, (2) scientific and technological services for industry and government, (3) a technical basis for equity in trade, and (4) technical services to promote public safety. The Bureau's technical work is per- formed by the National Measurement Laboratory, the National Engineering Laboratory, and the Institute for Computer Sciences and Technology. THE NATIONAL MEASUREMENT LABORATORY provides the national system of physical and chemical and materials measurement; coordinates the system with measurement systems of other nations and furnishes essential services leading to accurate and uniform physical and chemical measurement throughout the Nation's scientific community, industry, and commerce; conducts materials research leading to improved methods of measurement, standards, and data on the properties of materials needed by industry, commerce, educational institutions, and Government; provides advisory and research services to other Government agencies; develops, produces, and distributes Standard Reference Materials; and provides calibration services. The Laboratory consists of the following centers: Absolute Physical Quantities^ — Radiation Research — Chemical Physics — Analytical Chemistry — Materials Science THE NATIONAL ENGINEERING LABORATORY provides technology and technical ser- vices to the public and private sectors to address national needs and to solve national problems; conducts research in engineering and applied science in support of these efforts; builds and maintains competence in the necessary disciplines required to carry out this research and technical service; develops engineering data and measurement capabilities; provides engineering measurement traceability services; develops test methods and proposes engineering standards and code changes; develops and proposes new engineering practices; and develops and improves mechanisms to transfer results of its research to the ultimate user. The Laboratory consists of the following centers: Applied Mathematics — Electronics and Electrical Engineering^ — Manufacturing Engineering — Building Technology — Fire Research — Chemical Engineering^ THE INSTITUTE FOR COMPUTER SCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGY conducts research and provides scientific and technical services to aid Federal agencies in the selection, acquisition, application, and use of computer technology to improve effectiveness and economy in Government operations in accordance with Public Law 89-306 (40 U.S.C. 759), relevant Executive Orders, and other directives; carries out this mission by managing the Federal Information Processing Standards Program, developing Federal ADP standards guidelines, and managing Federal participation in ADP voluntary standardization activities; provides scientific and technological advisory services and assistance to Federal agencies; and provides the technical foundation for computer-related policies of the Federal Government.

The purpose of the workshop was to review current documentation standards and guidelines, to provide a forum for information exchange, and to propose and discuss future guidelines and standards for software documentation. In order to determine the scope of the workshop, to obtain some idea of what topics would be of interest, and who the audience might be, a "Call for Indications of Interest", was issued, with a deadline of May 15, 1980. The response was generous, and by October 1980, a preliminary program was finalized. The program was planned to be a regional affair, covering commuting distance from Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. In the following pages there are presented introductions by session moderators, papers presented, comments by discussants, recorders, and members of the audience. It is hoped that the record of this workshop will contribute to the identification and clarification of software documentation issues, will help in solving some of the issues, and will thus contribute to the development of better and more useful information systems. The final program, as it was presented, has been reproduced, and references to page numbers in the Proceedings provide an index to the presented material.

  • The Evolution of Lisp
    1 The Evolution of Lisp Guy L. Steele Jr. Richard P. Gabriel Thinking Machines Corporation Lucid, Inc. 245 First Street 707 Laurel Street Cambridge, Massachusetts 02142 Menlo Park, California 94025 Phone: (617) 234-2860 Phone: (415) 329-8400 FAX: (617) 243-4444 FAX: (415) 329-8480 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Lisp is the world’s greatest programming language—or so its proponents think. The structure of Lisp makes it easy to extend the language or even to implement entirely new dialects without starting from scratch. Overall, the evolution of Lisp has been guided more by institutional rivalry, one-upsmanship, and the glee born of technical cleverness that is characteristic of the “hacker culture” than by sober assessments of technical requirements. Nevertheless this process has eventually produced both an industrial- strength programming language, messy but powerful, and a technically pure dialect, small but powerful, that is suitable for use by programming-language theoreticians. We pick up where McCarthy’s paper in the first HOPL conference left off. We trace the development chronologically from the era of the PDP-6, through the heyday of Interlisp and MacLisp, past the ascension and decline of special purpose Lisp machines, to the present era of standardization activities. We then examine the technical evolution of a few representative language features, including both some notable successes and some notable failures, that illuminate design issues that distinguish Lisp from other programming languages. We also discuss the use of Lisp as a laboratory for designing other programming languages. We conclude with some reflections on the forces that have driven the evolution of Lisp.

The parameter field and certain portions of the I/O field are optional and may be included at the discretion of the operator. 2. Capital letters and spaces in the command lines must be typed exactly as shown. 3. Brackets in the command line indicate that the instruction contained within the brackets is optional and may or may not be entered, depending on the situation and the user's desire for clarity. 4. Parentheses indicate the parameter field. This field is composed of those parameters that will modify the action of the command to suit the user's needs. 5. Braces indicate the default values of a paramter or a prompt. If <ENTER> is typed instead of the the value or switch required, the default is used. 6. The parameter values are indicated by val (value), exp (expression), or sw (switch). Sample numeric values, string expressions, or switch indicators are usually given. 7. File specifications take the following format: filespec/ext.password:d filespec - an alphabetic character A-Z followed by up to seven optional characters or numbers /ext - optional file specification extension, consisting of an alphabetic character and up to two optional characters or numbers .password - optional file password consisting of an alphabetic character followed by up to seven optional characters or numbers :d - optional drive specification, which indicates the drive on which the file is located TRSDOS 1.3 Hardware Features: 1.
