Towards a definition of structured programming
ACM '74: Proceedings of the 1974 annual ACM conference - Volume 2

In spite of the lack of a single agreed upon definition of <u>structured programming</u>, the term has been used more or less consistently to describe certain kinds of programming methodologies. Peter Denning has noted both the dangers of using an ...
The Formal Aspects of Structured Modeling

<P>Structured modeling is an approach to the development of a new generation of computer-based modeling environments. This paper, which is part of a series, presents a formal development of the definitions and theory of structured modeling.</P>
The Structured Process Modeling Theory (SPMT) a cognitive view on why and how modelers benefit from structuring the process of process modeling

After observing various inexperienced modelers constructing a business process model based on the same textual case description, it was noted that great differences existed in the quality of the produced models. The impression arose that certain quality ...
