  Types and persistence in database programming languages
Atkinson M., Buneman O. ACM Computing Surveys 19(2): 105-170, 1987.  Type: Article

This paper surveys the development of programming languages designed for database applications. The major difference between these languages and traditional ones, such as Ada or Pascal, is the concept of persistence--the abili...

  Incremental data-flow analysis algorithms
Ryder B. (ed), Paull M. ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems 10(1): 1-50, 1988.  Type: Article

This paper presents an analysis of several data-flow algorithms and a mechanism for the incremental updating of each. In particular, it describes the Allen-Cocke interval analysis (both forward and backward data-flow) and the Hecht-Ull...

  Professional software; vol. 2: programming practice
Ledgard H., Tauer J., Addison-Wesley Longman Publishing Co., Inc., Boston, MA, 1987.  Type: Book (9789780201122329)

This book is volume 2 of a two-volume set. It presents, in an easily readable style, issues that a programmer must address in building large systems. Unlike volume 1, which addresses the entire development process, this volume is only ...

  On the design of ALEPH
Grune D., Centrum voor Wiskunde en Informatica, Amsterdam, The Netherlands, 1986.  Type: Book (9789789061962847)

This monograph describes the design of the language ALEPH and the design of a compiler which converts ALEPH programs into an interpretive language called ALICE, or ALeph Intermediate CodE. The book is apparently the author’s ...

  Miranda: a non-strict functional language with polymorphic types
Turner D.  Functional programming languages and computer architecture (, Nancy, France, 161985.  Type: Proceedings

Miranda is a functional programming language modeled after the earlier languages by the author, Sasl and KRC. Miranda is strongly typed, with types deduced by the compiler from the script (i.e., program). Miranda includes a facility fo...

  A modular verifiable exception handling mechanism
Yemini S., Berry D. ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems 7(2): 214-243, 1985.  Type: Article

This paper addresses the issue of an exception handling mechanism that is reliably added to a language that implements data abstractions. The authors argue that such an exception handler should be (1) part of an orthogonal language, wh...

  Programmer perceptions of productivity and programming tools
Hanson S. (ed), Rosinski R. Communications of the ACM 28(2): 180-189, 1985.  Type: Article

The authors describe three ways to measure tool use: (1) controlled experiments, (2) measure programmers to determine which tools they naturally use, and (3) survey their preferences. This paper describes an experiment based upon this ...

  The potential effect of Ada on software engineering in the 1980’s
Druffel L.  Theory and practice of software (, Capri, Italy, May 3-7, 1982) 135-143, 1982.  Type: Proceedings

During the past five years there have been many papers on Ada--its design, implementation, and impact on computer science. This paper presents a general overview of the language in terms of encapsulation and data abstraction f...
