CALL FOR PAPERS
Forth is a simple postfix programming system which is able to
provide high integrity software through intensive re-use of
components and ease of interactive testing. Forth prioritises
extensibility over language features in a way that allows
programmers to provide simple but poweful abstractions for
specific problem domains. Its applicability ranges over
interactive programming of small microcontrollers, powerful
visual development environments, the programming of distributed
agents communicating via open protocols, and system
configuration using the IEEE Standard "Open Boot" which is
used to provide "plug and play" style features on Power PC's,
Sun Workstations and PowerMacs.
