Download or read book A Simplified Guide to Structured COBOL Programming written by Daniel D. McCracken and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1976 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is for the person who wants to learn what COBOL is, what programming is, and how to use COBOL in typical business data processing applications. Assumes no previous background in programming. Hands-on programming begins in Chapter 1--each chapter is based on one or more example programs applicable to real-life business settings. Treatment is based on the concepts of structured programming--only a few logical control structures are used throughout the book. Emphasizes a clear program style for ease of reading and debugging. All programs have been tested and run, and computer output is displayed in each case.

Book excerpt: "Ideal for readers with little programming and/or mathematical background, this practical introduction to Cobol programming uses a simplified, "learn-by-example" approach that stresses top-down design and modular structured programming and emphasizes the planning and development of the program logic throughout - with complete programming examples that walk users through the problem analysis, logic design, program coding, testing, and debugging." Introduces two or more realistic sample programs in each chapter which demonstrate application of the program development process to an actual programming situation "from start to finish" - covering everything from problem definition to input/output specifications, processing requirements, hierarchy charts, program flowcharts, pseudocode, and program code. Stresses the importance of using top-down logic design and modular structure programming to construct high-quality, easy-to-read programs. Dissects program code and explains "step-by-step" how the program statements work together to produce the desired output. Examines menu-driven programming, data validation, guidelines for creating efficient and effective menu systems, and sequential, relative and indexed files. Checkpoint exercises, chapter summaries, and programming projects are included." For electronic and computer technology professionals. .

Download or read book Clinical Information Systems written by Bruce I. Blum and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As its name implies, this book deals with clinical information systems. The clinical information system (or CIS) is an automated system with a long term database containing clinical information used for patient care. This definition excludes business systems (no clinical data), physiological monitoring systems (no long term database), and many research systems (not used in patient care). The theses of this book are (a) that CIS technology is mature, (b) that the CIS will have a major impact upon patient care and the health delivery system, and (c) that the number of commercial systems which now offer these potential benefits is very small. The objective of this book is to establish the above theses and thereby (a) inform both users and developers, (b) increase the demand for more sophisticated products, and finally, (c) provide marketplace incentives to advance the state of the art. The CIS is an application of computer technology for a specific class of problems. Its development requires a knowledge of the technology with an understanding of the application area. As with any tool-based application, the scope of the product will be limited by the capability of the tool. In the case of the CIS, reliable computers with comprehensive database facilities became com mercially available in the early 1970s. By the mid 1970s there was a maturation of the literature, and evaluations of 5-years' use began to appear. As will be shown, there have been surprisingly few new ideas introduced since the 1970s.

Book excerpt: In Go To, Steve Lohr chronicles the history of software from the early days of complex mathematical codes mastered by a few thousand to today's era of user-friendly software and over six million professional programmers worldwide. Lohr maps out the unique seductions of programming, and gives us an intimate portrait of the peculiar kind of genius that is drawn to this blend of art, science, and engineering, introducing us to the movers and shakers of the 1950s and the open-source movement of today. With original reporting and deft storytelling, Steve Lohr shows us how software transformed the world, and what it holds in store for our future.
