Once upon a time we had here a real multitasked Algol68 compiler
written by a team headed by Jean-Pierre Banatre (and now head of
Irisa). This compiler ran on a BULL Iris 80 machine and use a new
(and at that time innovative) compilation scheme : <<Event driven
compilation>>
In the same time we also built one of the first // machine (made in
late seventies with Zilog Z80 chips). This machine (Kensur) had one
multiprocessor (3 procs accessing a shared memory) and 5 procs all
connected and communicating together on a unidirectional ring. Each
proc was dedicated to a specific task: lexical analysis, types and
mode management, code generation, event handlers ...
