PS-Algol is a persistent derivative of S-algol. It was developed around 1981 at the Universities of Edinburgh and St Andrews. It supports database capability by providing for longevity of data in the form of a persistent heap that survives termination of PS-Algol programs. It is considered[citation needed] to be the first programming language to support orthogonal persistence.
