Abstract :
P250 FORTRAN IV, the process control language used by the Westinghouse Corporation´s Hagan/Computer Systems Division, is described. This is a standard FORTRAN made more powerful with extensions, but various executive and object code modifications (as opposed to language modifications) have been made to enable this compiler language to be applicable for process control systems.
