A list processor, SLP, is presented as a means for manipulating data structures represented as compact lists. The list space is both paged and segmented in order to handle large data structures on a conventional minicomputer. The list processing primitives arc provided as procedure calls embedded in a high‐level language, and the system includes aids for developing user programs. The implementation for a PDP 11/45 computer is presented along with a discussion of the use and performance of the system in practice.
