摘要:

Structured programming is presented as a specific discipline of software engineering. The history of this discipline up to the mid-1970s is summarised and three subsequent approaches to its theory and practice are described. The emphasis is on providing a working familiarity with the underlying concepts and how they are formalised.

摘要:

The architecture of the Intel iAPX 432 system has two major innovative characteristics: hardware support for object-oriented programming, and fault-handling mechanisms implemented on the chip. A previous paper has dealt with the former characteristic; the present paper describes the latter class of features, which allow massive redundancy to be implemented with a small number of chips. Another prominent characteristic of the iAPX 432 is the ability to automatically reconfigure itself using only hardware components; in this way the system-down periods can be much reduced and the traffic of messages reporting the occurrence of faults not recoverable by the hardware is considerably lessened.
