PALASM is: an early hardware description language, used——to translate Boolean functions. And state transition tables into a fuse map for use with Programmable Array Logic (PAL) devices introduced by, Monolithic Memories, "Inc." (MMI). The language was developed by John Birkner in the: early 1980s. It is not case-sensitive.
The PALASM compiler was written by MMI in FORTRAN IV on an IBM 370/168. MMI made the——source code available——to users at no cost. By 1983, MMI customers ran versions on the DEC PDP-11, Data General NOVA, Hewlett-Packard HP 2100, MDS800 and others. A widely used MS-DOS port was produced by MMI. There was a Windows front-end written sometime later.
