I just read his selected bibliography on wikipedia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Martin_(author)#Publications https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Martin_(author)#Publicat... ) and I somehow never realized that all these foundational works of computer science were written by the same guy. "Design of real time computer systems" in particular is part of the bedrock of modern computing.
