Abstract
A major deficiency of programming languages, when compared to natural languages, is the inability of programming languages to adapt to improved means of communicating thoughts. A means of alleviating this difficulty in a FORTRAN environment, is presented.

A dynamic (FORTRAN) programming system
AFIPS '76: Proceedings of the June 7-10, 1976, national computer conference and expositionIn recent years, new insights into the nature of programming languages have been obtained from the comparative study of natural and programming languages. These studies reveal that programming languages are deficient in their ability to adapt both to ...
Programming in Vienna Fortran
Exploiting the full performance potential of distributed memory machines requires a careful distribution of data across the processors. Vienna Fortran is a language extension of Fortran which provides the user with a wide range of facilities for such ...
