A practical GNU epsilon tutorial
Explanation of GNU epsilon https://www.gnu.org/software/epsilon/epsilon.htmlFri Jan 27 14:46:14 2023 - permalink -
"The ε core language, an imperative first-order language, is called ε₀. It’s inconvenient for humans to use for serious problems, yet simple and potentially very efficient. Using ε₀ I’ve built ε₁, a higher-level language with a Lispy feel, but untyped — not dynamically typed like Lisp: untyped, like Forth and machine language."

The Inmos Legacy - transputer links and SpaceWire
After reading https://forums.theregister.com/forum/all/2022/05/06/pi_pico_transputer_code/, I was looking for information related to transputers and found this page.Tue Jan 24 10:21:40 2023 - permalink -
The point-to-point technology to link transputers was formalised in the IEEE 1355 standard. This was further developed under the ESA into SpaceWire, which is now designed into a number of space missions under development in Europe, the USA and Japan. A key player in developing SpaceWire was Paul Walker from the transputer team whose company, 4Links, is now selling SpaceWire test equipment.
XMOS mentioned on the page can be found on https://www.xmos.ai- http://www.inmos.com/inmos_legacy.html
