Abstract :
This paper will present methods used in design and development of an ATLAS to C compiler. ATLAS has two major differences from traditional computer languages. ATLAS has an inherent object based organization, many ATLAS language elements are designed around the support of hardware. The other major difference is that programs are frequently written with test station oriented languages embedded within ATLAS code
