Product Description

Product Description

The original program design text. This book is about programming for data processing applications, and its purpose is to present a coherent method and procedure for designing systems, programs, and components that are transparently simple and self-evidently correct. The main emphasis is on the structure: on the dissection of a problem into parts and the arrangement of those parts to form a solution.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the Greatest Program Concept Book I have ever read, 18 Nov 2003
By Jose Domingues - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Since the first day it comes to my knowledge, that I use this book as a reference and a permanent guide in my work.

It passed, already, 17 years and I still use the concepts and notions the author defends. All the programs I write, or wrote, have one characteristic: M.A.Jackson's structure.

For all programmers, either beginners or experienced ones, I recommend to use the notions and theories explained in this book. It helps the writing and the debugging, but most of all, when it is well documented, it reduces dramatically the time for maintenance.

A MUST!

Thank you Mr. Jackson for what I achieved with this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Timeless Classic, 13 Aug 2008
By Robert G. Bowerman "robert_bowerman" (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Jackson Structured Programming (JSP) is a procedural programming technique that predates object oriented programming. A number of the principles in JSP, however, apply across numerous realms of computer science and should be understood by all computer scientists. Jackson's insight is that the structure of a programme should mirror and contain the natural structures inherent in the inputs and outputs. Given a detailed analysis and understanding of the input and output data structures, the most efficient and easiest-to-programme, easiest-to-evolve, and easiest-to understand programme structure becomes apparent. No fabrication is required.
