Portability of MUSS compilers is achieved by using an abstract machine model concept. Two different abstract models, both suited for multi‐language multi‐machine usage, have been developed and evaluated. These models differ mainly in the level of interface to the compiler. The form of these models and the performance of two compilers, each using both models, are presented.
