<language> A high-level programming language designed by
Niklaus Wirth at ETH in 1978. It is a derivative of
Pascal with well-defined interfaces between modules, and
facilities for parallel computation. Modula-2 was developed
as the system language for the Lilith workstation.
The central concept is the module which may be used to
encapsulate a set of related subprograms and data structures,
and restrict their visibility from other portions of the
program. Each module has a definition part giving the
interface, and an implementation part.
The language provides limited single-processor concurrency
(monitors, coroutines and explicit transfer of control)
and hardware access (absolute addresses and interrupts).
It uses name equivalence.

L. Cardelli et al, DEC and Olivetti, 1988. A descendant of
Modula-2+ and Cedar, designed for safety and simplicity.
Objects, generics, threads, exceptions and garbage collection.
Modules are explicitly safe or unsafe. As in Mesa, any set of
variables can be monitored. No multiple inheritance, no
operator overloading. Uses structural equivalence. "Modula-3
