Abstraction mechanisms in the BETA programming language
POPL '83: Proceedings of the 10th ACM SIGACT-SIGPLAN symposium on Principles of programming languages

The BETA programming language is developed as part of the BETA project. The purpose of this project is to develop concepts, constructs and tools in the field of programming and programming languages. BETA has been developed from 1975 on and the various ...
Experiences with a simple structured programming language
SIGCSE '74: Proceedings of the fourth SIGCSE technical symposium on Computer science education

A great deal of interest has developed in structured programming [Dahl, Dijkstra, and Hoare, 1972] during the past few years. This paper is concerned with some experiences obtained in the use of a structured programming language in the computer science ...
Synchronization abstraction in the BETA programming language

This paper argues that synchronization of processes need not be part of the core of a programming language, but that they can just as well be built from existing abstractions - provided these are sufficiently flexible and general. BETA's notion of ...
