Modula-2 was designed by Niklaus Wirth at ETH Zurich as a systems implementation language for the operating system of the Lilith workstation, a project inspired by the Alto which Wirth had used during his sabbatical year at Xerox PARC. Modula-2 is a strongly typed language of the Pascal family and it predecessors are Mesa and Pascal. In Modula-2, Wirth had addressed most of the criticisms of Pascal. The most important concepts introduced were modularity and information hiding but also concurrent programming.
