Abstract
Earlier work, principally on COBOL 68 compilers, showed that it was impossible to define a useful subset of COBOL that could be conveniently transported across computers from a number of different manufacturers.
This latest work, carried out with the assistance of a grant from the Leverhulme Trust, indicates a much improved situation between dialects of COBOL 74.
