UNCOL, UNiversal Computer Oriented Language, was a proposed universal intermediate language for compilers. It was never implemented. UNCOL would have supported a back-end for every machine architecture. A compiler for a new programming language would only have to compile to UNCOL.
UNCOL is sometimes used as a generic term for the idea of a universal intermediate language. Architecture Neutral Distribution Format is an example of an UNCOL in this sense.
