(This Foreword is not a part of American National Standard ANSI/MDC X11.1–1984.)
MUMPS, an acronym for Massachusetts General Hospital Utility Multi-Programming System. is a high level-interactive computer programming language developed for use in complex data handling operations. The MUMPS Development Committee has accepted responsibility for creation and maintenance of the language since early 1973. The first ANSI approved standard was approved Sept. 15, 1977 via the canvass method. Subsequently, the MUMPS Development Committee has met several times annually to consider revisions to the standard. The new revisions were submitted to ANSI for processing via the canvass method Oct. 15, 1983. Approval was granted on November 15, 1984.
Document preparation was performed by the MUMPS Development Committee. Suggestions for improvement of this standard are welcome. They should be submitted to the MUMPS Development Committee, c/o Richard F. Walters. Division of Computer Science. University of California, Davis. CA 95616.
Consensus for approval if this standard as an American National Standard was achieved through the use of the Canvass Method. The following organizations responded to the canvass.
