GASP (simulation language)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Work on the original GASP project was done by Philip J. Kiviat at U.S. Steel Corporation, and was geared to use on small to medium size computers with FORTRAN II compilers.[4] : p. 3
Like SIMSCRIPT (conceived in 1962), there are developmental links of GASP (1964) at RAND Corporation.[2]
While one of the RAND principals conceded that "GASP cannot compete with SIMSCRIPT" the same person praised GASP's strength: that it "serves well those who have only a small machine or who use several computers with no common language."[2][5]
