Sure this paper introduces the concept of modules in software back when modules were non-existent. As far as I know, there's nothing on the optimal way to organize (keyword) modules.
- Twisol 6y ago> Sure this paper introduces the concept of modules in software back when modules were non-existent. No... that's not correct. The very first non-clerical page quotes from a textbook discussing modular systems, and Parnas himself notes a distinct lack of material on how to actually organize and break down the system into modules. The paper is literally called "On the criteria to be used in decomposing systems into modules." It is prudent to at least read the preexisting material if you are going to dismiss it.
- Geminidog 6y agoMy mistake, I skimmed it and saw assembly language and I assumed it was that really early seminal paper that introduced modules to the programming world. Obviously my guess was wrong.
