Management of Complexity by Peter Hale
Cagle (2006) explains that "You can never eliminate complexity from a system, you can only move it from place to place". The purpose of my research is to allow software developers to deal with complexity as far as possible in order to leave the end-user free to model their own problems. ... A diagrammatic representation of the cross-cutting concerns can then be translated into a computer language representation such as AspectJ for Java (Kiczales et al, 2001) and AspectXML for XML (eXtensible Markup Language) (Peterson, 2005).

Structured Languages by Peter Hale
Busy users will not be interested in a system that is difficult to use, but the system must still give reasonable results. So it is necessary to make it as easy as possible for a user to enter the information the software needs. Structured languages can be the solution to this problem because... Therefore the structured language presents a mathematical representation to the computer and a natural language or diagrammatic representation to the user. ... 2001) explain however, that ambiguity in natural language can make it difficult to translate natural language into SQL.

Coding Standards : A Must For Your Software Development Team by Manu Tripathi
Every programmer has her own style of coding like some use ‘inum’ for declaring an integer variable while some use ‘num_i’ for declaring the same. Like wise some programmers are lazy enough to add comments. These small drops when added together can create an ocean of confusion. ... Usually coding styles differ from language to language, but it is better to establish one standard for one language. ... Few standards used worldwide Different computer languages need different coding style, but there are some basic points where we can discuss coding styles on.
