This implementation of the SIMULA language for the NORD-10 minicomputer has been performed by mr. G. P. Philippot of TPH Data A.S. All marketing rights for the NORD-10 have been transferred to Norsk Data A.S. in agreement with TPH Data A.S.

The SIMULA language, developed by the Norwegian Computing Center (NCC), has achieved great acceptance in universities and computer teaching institutes for the exceptionally good program and data structuring capabilities, making it especially suitable in teaching programming techniques. The list-processing and simulation capabilities offered by the SIMSET and SIMULATION system classes make SIMULA a programming language with capabilities far beyond those normally found with FORTRAN, COBOL, BASIC, etc.

This implementation of the SIMULA languag makes, for the first time, these programming capabilities available within low cost minicomputer environments.

All questions and respones concerning the NORD-10 SIMULA language should be directed to Norsk Data's Marketing or Customer Support departments.
