Structured Programs, Arcadian Machines and the Burroughs B1700

Structured programming has an Achilles heel—its ultimate dependence on the underlying hardware. With the advent of computers like the Burroughs B1700 which emulate arbitrary object code efficiently, software can be freed of its machine dependence, and the full benefits of structured programming can be realized.
