==Introduction==
By now it is already difficult to represent the era of mainframes - the large computers, each of which occupied decent bay but at the beginning of the 70th this was to be all the rage. In those years the computers only began to appear in the regions distant from the military needs. In the USSR for incomprehensible reasons were [[ICL 4-70|produced copies]] of the computers of the British company [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Computers_Limited|ICL]] (but not the then legislator of modes - [[IBM]]) at that time.
One of them felt in [[Institute of Theoretical and Experimental Physics|ITEP]], where it was necessary for the group of [[Vladimir Arlazarov|Arlazarov]] to be the trailblazers of package multitasking on the computer. Thus as far the programmers worked with that code, it became obvious, to use appropriate programming languages. Specifically, it was necessary, because multitasking did not allow the traditional at that time manual fastening of regions memory behind areas of program code and variables. However, the programming languages (FORTRAN and Assembler) seemed by violence above the creative thought. As a result an expensive and powerful (for those times) technology stayed almost always.
