language (DIANA) A formerly de facto standard
intermediate language for Ada programs, developed by Goos
and Wulf at CMU in January 1981. DIANA is an attributedtree representation, with an abstract interface defined in
Interface Description Language (Nestor, Lamb and Wulf, CMU,
1981; Snodgrass(?), 1989(?)). DIANA resulted from a merger of
AIDA and TCOL.Ada. At the present (2001) it is no longer
used by the major ADA compilers
["DIANA - An Intermediate Language for Ada", G.T. Goos et al,
LNCS 161, Springer 1983].
