ACADEMIC MODULA-2 SURVEY ------------------------ 9 December 1988 Slightly more than two years ago Larry Mazlack conducted a survey of Academic users of Modula-2 over the network. To the best of my knowledge he moved to a different University and stopped updating and distributing the report. The Computer Science faculty here at SFSU are just as curious about how Modula-2 is used at other Universities as they were two years ago. To help satisfy their request for this type of information this is a continuation of the "Mazlack" survey. ================================================================================ If you are currently teaching a university level class, or are about to do so, or know someone who is, please make sure that a reponse is made to this survey. Your cooperation in collecting current data will be appreciated. The survey will be updated and reposted as additional information is obtained. Any corrections and clarifications you provide will be appreciated. Let's work at making the survey as accurate as possible. Respond or urge others to respond. Please send your survey responses in the following format: (a) institution, (b) course number, (c) name and/or brief description, (d) level of course (fresh, soph, junior, senior, grad, 1st yr, 2nd yr, etc.), (e) total number of students enrolled in the course per year, (f) text(s) used, (g) compiler(s) used, (h) hardware configuration(s), (i) contact person(s), (j) email address of contact person, (k) postal address of contact person, (l) miscl. If you have information about a Modula-2 compiler, please supply the following: (a) organization or manufacturer, (b) person and/or department, (c) addresses (postal, telephone, fax, email, telex, etc.), (d) machine(s), (e) operating system(s), (f) approximate price, (g) miscl. Please send your replies and comments to: uucp: uunet!cca.ucsf.edu!cshub!stan arpa: cshub!stan@cca.ucsf.edu ================================================================================ The last survey report from Larry Mazlack, which I have a copy of, was dated 24 August 1986. Much of the information it contains is now out of date. None of it will propagate to the new report unless the entry is confirmed by a new response.
