Sather

("Say-ther", named for the Sather Tower at UCB, as opposed to the
Eiffel Tower) Steve M. Omohundro, ICSI, Berkeley 1991. Interactive
object-oriented language with simple syntax, similar to Eiffel, but non-
proprietary and faster. Sather 0.2 was nearly a subset of Eiffel 2.0, but
Sather 1.0 adds many distinctive features. Parameterized classes, multiple
inheritance, statically-checked strong typing, garbage collection.
Generates C as an intermediate language. Versions for most workstations.
(See dpSather, pSather, Sather-K).

Self

Small, dynamically-typed object-oriented language, based on
prototypes and delegation. Objects may inherit state, and dynamically
change their patterns of inheritance. Threads. "Self: The Power of
Simplicity", David Ungar <ungar@sun.eng.com> et al, SIGPLAN Notices

Ftp:ftp://self.stanford.edu/pub/Self-3.0/
for Sparc



SIMULA 67

A general-purpose successor to SIMULA I, in which the
simulation support is defined in object-oriented terms. Introduced the
record class, leading the way to data abstraction and object-oriented
programming. Garbage collection.



SIMULA

Current version of SIMULA 67. Used as the introductory
programming language at Lund Inst Tech, Sweden and U Bergen, Norway.

Smalltalk

Software Concepts Group, Xerox PARC, led by Alan Kay, early
70's. Took the concepts of class and message from Simula-67 and made them
all-pervasive, the quintessential object-oriented language. Innovations
included the bitmap display, windowing system and use of mouse. Early
versions: Smalltalk-72, Smalltalk-74, Smalltalk-76 (inheritance taken from
Simula, and concurrency), and Smalltalk-78. "The Smalltalk-76 Programming
