Yes, the material was specifically describing DEMOS and Simula. The coursework was all about the dependability and performance of a simulation we had to program using DEMOS. Interesting course really, but a bit let down by teaching assistants who didn't know the material very well.

I believe CIM does the work of compiling C as well, but i may be misremebering.

Do you happen to have a PDF of the course material which you could share? I will contact the course admin otherwise.

Yes, CIM is generating C and uses the available C compiler behind the scenes.

I don't have a copy unfortunately.

The course admin might be on holiday but it's worth a try.

I can check tomorrow if I still have acess to the course resources
