Does anyone out there have a reference to reduced instruction set
languages, i.e. HLLs with a simplified set of language primitives. What
I'd ideally like to learn about are languages supporting concurrency, with
a few primitives that are as orthogonal to each other as possible.
Modula-3, with its 50-page language reference manual, would be an example,
but ideally I'd like a language with a definition based on a formal
semantics.


I'd heard the term, "reduced instruction set language" before, but
don't remember where.
