This language was later renamed to *ELAN*. + +Jochen Liedtke and Ulrich Bartling, both studying maths at Bielefeld University +at that time, created a compiler for SLAN3B as part of their diploma thesis in +1976 [liedtke76]_\ [bartling76]_. It was written in CDL, a machine independent +compiler description language, and generated code for Siemens’ BS 1000 and +BS 2000 mainframe operating system running on a BS 4004/45 machine. It was +later ported to the IBM 370 and TR 440 [hahn79]_. + +But ELAN was supposed to be used in schools or at universities and most of them +could not affort the cost of such a machine. Thus a compiler and runtime system +for the smaller and less expensive microprocessors was needed [liedtke79]_. +Development of this system began in 1977 or 1978\ [#]_. It ran on the Zilog Z80 +microprocessor with 64 kilobytes of RAM. This machine’s cost were approximately +20,000 DM (10,000 USD). The runtime system was called *Extendable multi user +microprocessor ELAN system*, abbreviated *EUMEL*. + +A year later, in 1979, details about EUMEL were published in GMD Spiegel +[liedtke79]_, a quarterly publication published by GMD, and then presented at +*9. Jahrestagung der Gesellschaft für Informatik* at University of Bonn +[kloeckner79]_. Officially the cooperation between HRZ Bielefeld and GMD began +in fall 1979 [gmdspiegel85d]_. + +..
