 About Spectrum Systems, Inc. and its ALTOS^© suite.

 Spectrum Systems, Inc. is a software development and IT services company that has been serving clients in the financial and telecommunication industries since 1994. Spectrum Systems’ ALTOS^© MCP ALGOL to C++/UNIX/WINDOWS automated conversion technology tools and conversion methodology is the best product currently available on the market to convert UNISYS/MCP/ALGOL - based systems to C/C++ on UNIX or WINDOWS running on commodity servers. The ALTOS^© suite includes ALGOL to C++ Converter, and multi-platform C++ run-time libraries and header files to use with converted code on target platform(s). Converted systems can run on UNIX or Windows platforms.

As proven by our experience of using ALTOS^© to convert millions of lines of complex ALGOL code, more than 99.5% of the code is converted automatically, including complex, system-dependent features such as events, processes, etc. Converted code is instrumented for detailed logging/tracing/statistics collection, and converted system’s performance is on par, or better than the original ALGOL system’s performance.
