Abstract : This report describes the research and development of the Translator Generator System-II. The Translator Generator System-II is composed of a translator called TRANGEN and a language called TRANDIR. TRANGEN is a table driven compiler whose driving tables consist of representations of the productions which define the language being translated. The TRANDIR language allows for the definition of the character set, the syntax, the terminal symbols and the logic required to translate a given high level language. In addition, the pseudo-macros to target machine code may be defined. (Author)
