The SMITE Modulator Compilation System

Abstract

This paper gives an outline of the ideas underlying the Modular Compilation System to be used in the SMITE secure computer. This system prevents users loosing track of which generation of source text gave rise to which object code, by binding both together into an abstract data object, called a module. Operations give access to the latest versions and require both to be updated together. Linking modules together to form an executable object is performed automatically, so it becomes impossible to forget to relink after updating a module. Configuration control and mixed language working can also be provided. Great Britain.
