This world contains general purpose software components developped at EPFL
(Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne), or in english the "Swiss Federal
Institute of Technology" in Lausanne, Switzerland. They are carefully crafted
ADT (abstract data types) packages implementing Sets, Queues, Stacks,
Associative tables, for either static or dynamic types.

   In their terminology, a static type is a type which is neither a limited
type nor an access type. When an actual generic access type is associated
with a generic static type, objects would be shared, i.e. only the access
value would be stored, without copying the accessed object.
On the opposite, a dynamic type may be limited or an access type. However
a dynamic type must have the feature that every object has an implied
initial value.

   The implementation is based on balanced AVL binary trees. The packages
manage an internal free list to avoid returning each free item to the system
(up to a certain limit).

   I  have obtained permission from Mr. Strohmeier, dept.DMA at
EPFL CH-1015 Lausanne,  Switzerland tel: +41 (21) 474343 to include them in our
software catalog, providing the copyright notice is left on each component.

   The directory 'components' contains the actual components, and the 
directory 'tests' contains a set of tests to check that they execute correctly
when ported. The components represent 18150 lines and 7640 semicolons. The tests
around 40000 lines and 23630 semicolons. They all pass on an R1000.
