  ISWIM - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
is a programming language devised by Peter J. Landin and first described in his article, The Next 700 Programming Languages, published in the CACM in 1966.
program is a single expression qualified by 'where' clauses (auxiliary definitions including equations among variables), conditional expressions and function definitions.
was the first programming language to use 'where' clauses, and it uses them more than the modern languages that support them.

 Programming language design and implementation
In many ways computer languages haven't changed a lot since, they all have variables, assignment, arrays, expressions, similar control structures, sub-routines and functions (though sub-programs were in a later Fortran).
This language was designed in 1960 by the CODASYL committee based on work done by Grace Hopper on commercial languages such as Flowmatic.
ISWIM was described by Peter Landin in a paper he published in 1966 called the The next 700 programming languages [#!Landin66!#].

The algorithmic language has three different kinds of representations- reference, hardware, and publication, and the development described is in terms of the language are represented by a given set of symbols and it is only in the choice of symbols that the other two representations may differ.
ICI- is a language with dynamic, object-based data model with the flow control constructs and operators of C. It is designed for use in many environments, including embedded systems, as an adjunct to other programs and as a text-based interface to compiled libraries.

 Lambda the Ultimate history
If you haven't read the paper, but studied programming languages, perhaps that easiest way to describe the paper is to say that it is the origin of the EOPL approach: Language understanding by building (applicative) interpreters.
This paper is an interesting excursion into programming language archeology, a retrospective of a problem that the Y2K people faced, the 500 language problem, namely the reality that you have to write parsers for the 500 to 700 different languages that exist in the world before you can do semantic transformations on them.
Among the languages influenced by CLU are Ada, C++, ML, Modula 3, and Trellis/Owl.

 SECD machine - free-definition   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
The SECD machine is a highly influential virtual machine intended as a target for functional programming language compilers.
It was originally described by Peter J. Landin as part of his ISWIM programming language definition in 1963.
The memory organization of the SECD machine is similar to the model used by most functional language interpreters: a number of memory cells, each of which can hold either an atom (a simple value, for example 13), or represent an empty or non-empty list.

 The Tail Recursive SECD Machine
One method for producing verified implementations of programming languages is to formally derive them from abstract machines.
In addition, most functional programming languages require that their implementations be tail recursive.
