Structured programming theorists gained a major ally in the 1970s after IBM researcher Harlan Mills applied his interpretation of structured programming theory to the development of an indexing system for The New York Times research file. The project was a great engineering success, and managers at other companies cited it in support of ...
Jackson structured programming (JSP) is a method for structured programming developed by British software consultant Michael A. Jackson and was described in his 1975 book Principles of Program Design. [1]
Example of a Nassi–Shneiderman diagram. A Nassi–Shneiderman diagram (NSD) in computer programming is a graphical design representation for structured programming. [1] This type of diagram was developed in 1972 by Isaac Nassi and Ben Shneiderman who were both graduate students at Stony Brook University. [2]
A programming paradigm is a relatively high-level way to conceptualize and structure the implementation of a computer program. A programming language can be classified as supporting one or more paradigms. [1] Paradigms are separated along and described by different dimensions of programming.
Structured systems analysis and design method - a specific version of waterfall; Slow programming, as part of the larger Slow Movement, emphasizes careful and gradual work without (or minimal) time pressures. Slow programming aims to avoid bugs and overly quick release schedules. V-Model (software development) - an extension of the waterfall model
Structured analysis and design technique (SADT) is a systems engineering and software engineering methodology for describing systems as a hierarchy of functions. SADT is a structured analysis modelling language, which uses two types of diagrams: activity models and data models .
The later steps of JSD produce the code of the final system. Jackson’s first method, Jackson Structured Programming (JSP), is used to produce the final code. The output of the earlier steps of JSD are a set of program design problems, the design of which is the subject matter of JSP.
The structured program theorem, also called the Böhm–Jacopini theorem, [1] [2] is a result in programming language theory. It states that a class of control-flow graphs (historically called flowcharts in this context) can compute any computable function if it combines subprograms in only three specific ways ( control structures ).
