[comp.lang.c] ISP wanted

beech@engr.uky.edu (Wayne Beech) (10/27/88)

Hello,

I am trying to locate two programs.  The first program is ISP which is an
Instruction Set Processor not to be confused with the statistical package
of the same name marketed by Berkeley.  I would like to find a copy of this
written in C so that it can be run under VM/CMS, UNIX, and PRIMOS.  The second
program that im trying to locate is a BLISS compiler, again not to be 
confused with the BLSS statistical package marketed by Berkeley.  the BLISS
im looking for is a programming language.  any leads on either of these
programs would be apprecriated.  thank you.

For ISP, start by contacting its original creator (well,
after Bell & Newell), Mario Barbacci, who is still at
Carnegie-Mellon.  He implemented ISP at the same time I did PMS.

That same great institution also created BLISS, which was
used some by DEC and even made it onto the 360s via Bell Labs.
The head of the original design tem, Bill Wulf, is still
connected with CMU too I believe.
