Abstract: The Augsburg Structure-Oriented computer architecture (ASTOR) combines parallel processing facilities on several levels with modern concepts of programming. A suitable assembly language also has been developed. It has a new control construct called DEPENDENCY that models dependencies between statements by means of a Petri net of special form. The conventional CASE-construct is expanded to permit simultaneously processable branches with nonconstant CASE labels.
