A FORTRAN Extension to Facilitate Proposal Preparation

James T. Carleton, P. E. Lego, Rondon Suarez · IEEE Transactions on Electronic Computers · 1964

Building the proposal writer system around FORTRAN II enabled the system to be completed quickly and with modest effort. The use of the system is still considered experimental; however, the language is presented in the belief that it qualifies as a language topic with an engineering flavor.
