The second ACM SIGPLAN History of Programming
Languages Conference (HOPL-II) took place on April 20-23, 1993 in
Cambridge, Massachusetts. The papers prepared for that conference
form the basis of this present volume
The Program Committee
decided
to have both invited and submitted papers, and we believe that the
range of languages and the quality of presentations will make this
volume a classic in the history of programming literature. The languages
for HOPL-II were: Ada, ALGOL 68, C, C++, CLU, Discrete Simulation
Languages, Monitors and Concurrent Pascal, FORMAC, Forth, Icon, Lisp,
Pascal, Prolog, Smalltalk. The results of this conference were recorded
in Thomas J. Bergin and Richard G. Gibson, "History of Programming
Languages" [ACM Press, New York , NY and Addison-Wesley Publishing
Company, Reading, MA, 1996] This Conference was preceeded by a Forum
on the History of Computing, and the papers presented at the forum
complete this volume.
