FORTRAN Automated Code Evaluation System (FACES) user's manual, version 2

Abstract

A system which provides analysis services for FORTRAN based software systems not normally available from system software is presented. The system is not a compiler, and compiler syntax diagnostics are not duplicated. For maximum adaptation to FORTRAN dialects, the code presented to the system is assumed to be compiler acceptable. The system concentrates on acceptable FORTRAN code features which are likely to produce undesirable results and identifies potential trouble areas before they become execution time malfunctions.
