Abstract
Structured programing is the set of design and implementation processes that yield well-structured programs. A well-structured program can be identified by the presence of five positive characteristics, and the absence of two negative characteristics.

On structured digraphs and program testing
In this paper certain graph theoretic problems dealing with the testing of structured programs are treated. A structured digraph is a digraph that represents a structured program. A labeling procedure which characterizes structured digraphs is ...
"structured creature": a prototype of moving space structure
ACE '08: Proceedings of the 2008 International Conference on Advances in Computer Entertainment TechnologyThis paper provides an introduction of a prototype of moving space structure that can interact with humans like sound or light. This work, named "structured creature" is a so flexible structure that it gives a strong presage of the future where physical ...
A simple technique to motivate structured programming
Programs with only sequence, selection, and iteration control structures (structured programs) are more understandable and changeable than programs with unrestricted control structures (flowchart programs). However, flowcharts are intuitive, simple, and ...
