- Title:
- An Expression Input Routine for LISP. AIM-018.
- Author:
- Hext, Jan
- Author (no Collectors):
- Hext, Jan
- Description:
- The expression input routine is a LISP function, Mathread [ ] with associated definitions, which reads in expressions such as (A+3-F(X,Y,Z)). Its result is an equivalent S-expression. The syntax of allowable expressions is given, but (unlike ALGOL's) it does not define the precedence of the operators; nor does the program carry out any explicit syntax analysis. Instead the program parses the expression according to a set of numerical precedence values, and reports if it finds any symbol out of context.

- Author:
- Hext, Jan
- Author (no Collectors):
- Hext, Jan
- Description:
- A notation is suggested for defining the syntax of a language in abstract form, specifying only its semantic constituents. A simple language is presented in this form and its semantic definition given in terms of these constituents. Methods are then developed for translating this language, first into LISP code and from there to machine code, and for proving that the translation is correct.

- McCarthy, John, 1927-2011
- Description:
- We describe Microalgol, a trivial subset of Algol, by means of an interpreter. The notions of abstract syntax and of 'state of the computation' permit a compact description of both syntax and semantics. We advocate an extension of this technique as a general way of describing programming language.

- McCarthy, John, 1927-2011
- Description:
- It is well known to be impossible to tile with dominoes a checkerboard with two opposite corners deleted. This fact is readily stated in the first order predicate calculus, but the usual proof which involves a parity and counting argument does not readily translate into predicate calculus. We conjecture that this problem will be very difficult for programmed proof procedures.

- McCarthy, John, 1927-2011
- Description:
- Landing a 5000 pound package on Mars that would spend a year looking for life and making other measurements has been proposed. We believe that this machine should be a stored program computer with sense and motor organs and that the machine should be mobile. We discuss the following points: 1. Advantages of a computer controlled system. 2. What the computer should be like. 3. What we can feasible do given the present state of work on artificial intelligence. 4. A plan for carrying out research in computer controlled experiments that will make the Mars machine as effective as possible.

- Title:
- LISP 2 Specifications Proposal. AIM-021.
- Author:
- Mitchell, R. W.
- Author (no Collectors):
- Mitchell, R. W.
- Description:
- Specifications for a LISP 2 system are proposed. The source language is basically Algol 60 extended to include list processing, input/output and language extension facilities. The system would be implemented with a source language translator and optimizer, the output of which could be processed by either an interpreter or a compiler. The implementation is specified for a single address computer with particular reference to an IBM 7090 where necessary . Expected efficiency of the system for list processing is significantly greater than the LISP 1.5 compiler. For execution of numeric algorithms the systems should be be comparable to many current "algebraic" compilers. Some familiarity with LISP, 1.5 Algol and the IBM 7090 is assumed.

- Experiments on Automatic Speech Recognition by a Digital Computer. AIM-026.
- Author:
- Reddy, D. Raj
- Author (no Collectors):
- Reddy, D. Raj
- Description:
- Speech sounds have in the past been investigated with the aid of spectographs, vo-coders and other analog devices. With the availability of digital computers with improved i-o devices such as Cathode Ray tubes and analog digital converters, it has recently become practicable to employ this powerful tool in the analysis of speech sounds. Some papers have appeared in the recent literature reporting the use of computers in the determination of the fundamental frequency and for vowel recognition. This paper discusses the details and results of a preliminary investigation conducted at Stanford. It includes various aspects of speech sounds such as waveforms of vowels and consonants; determination of a fundamental of the wave; Fourier (spectral) analysis of the sound waves format determination, simple vowel recognition algorithm and synthesis of sounds. All were obtained by the use of a digital computer.

- Title:
- Source Language Optimization of For-loops. AIM-020.
- Author:
- Reddy, D. Raj
- Author (no Collectors):
- Reddy, D. Raj
- Description:
- Program execution time can be reduced, by a considerable amount, by optimizing the 'For-loops' of Algol programs. By judicious use of index registers and by evaluating all the sub-expressions whose values are not altered within the 'For-loop', such optimization can be achieved. In this project we develop an algorithm to optimize Algol programs in list-structure form and generate a new source language program, which contains the 'desired contents in the index registers' as a part of the For-clause of the For-statement and additional statements for evaluating the same expressions outside the 'For-loop' This optimization is performed only for the innermost 'For-loops'. The program is written entirely in LISP. Arrays may have any number of subscripts. Further array declarations may have variable dimensions. (Dynamic allocation of storage.) The program does not try to optimize arithmetic expressions. (This has already been extensively investigated.)
