Abstract
Considerations and techniques are proposed that reduce the complexity of pr ograms by dividing them into functional modules. This can make it possible to create complex systems from simple, independent, reusable modules. Debug ging and modifying programs, reconfiguring I/O devices, and managing large programming projects can all be greatly simplified. And, as the module libr ary grows, increasingly sophisticated programs can be implemented using les s and less new code.
