Use a better language: pbutt pointers instead of copying contents.
Was that in this reference:
Habermann, A.N., Critical comments on the programming language Pascal, Acta Informatica, 3 (1973), pp. 47-57.
or did you mean:
Wulf, W.A., and Shaw, M., "Global Variable Considered Harmful," SIGPLAN Notices 8(2), February 1973.
but this has to be the original publication:
Parnas, D.L., "On the Criteria to be Used in Decomposing Systems into Modules," Communications of the ACM, Vol. 15, No. 12, 1972.
also relevant:
Wulf, W.A., "Programming Without the GOTO," Proceedings of the Internationale Federation of Information Processing, Ljublijana, Yugoslavia, August 197l.
The "Gallery of Old Iron" had recently taken up the gracious offer of the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory...
Wulf, W.A., "A Case Against the GOTO," Proceedings of the ACM National Conference, ACM, Boston, August 1972.
and higher level:
Jones, A.K., and Wulf, W.A., "Towards the Design of Secure Systems," Software: Practice and Experience, 5(4), October-December 1975.
Levin, R., Cohen, E., Pollack, F, Corwin, W., and Wulf, W.A., "Policy-Mechanism Separation in Hydra", Fifth Symposium on Operating Systems Priciples, Austin Texas, November 1975
