I need a pointer to the 'original' specification for the production system known as OPS5. I have references to works on OPS but not the original spec for the syntax and operation of the language/production system. The same information for OPS83 would also be useful.... later, ag gadfly -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Adam Glass LILINK Public Xenix Exiled UC Berkeley student Valley Stream, NY {cmcl2!hombre! , decvax!mergvax!}lilink!glass Ignore Reality

It does not run under Lisp as does OPS5, but is directly compiled. and the RHS language has control structures such as loops, instead of just the pure production system model of OPS5. :James Disclaimer: I think, speak, and act for myself -- not the University. -- :James P.
