Quotations
264 ;;Quote: with a functional design it is difficult to determine the cost of making a change
264 ;;Quote: instead of designing a system by its functions should view it as a model of reality
264 ;;Quote: a functional design may have no function corresponding to an individual session; makes it difficult to modify
265 ;;Quote: model the world as a network of processes, one for each entity, communicating and synchronizing by serial data streams
265 ;;Quote: if program's processes model entities, the program's activity corresponds to the entity's actual activity
266 ;;Quote: a data stream is described by a producing grammar and a consuming grammar which both describe the same result
266 ;;Quote: a program's processes can model entities if their structures are based on the grammars for input and output data streams
268 ;;Quote: instead of using end-of-file, introduce end-of-day markers to initiate once a day processing
