Abstract
This paper discusses the concepts of structures imposed on the precedence analysis of large information processing systems. These structures are hierarchies of information sets (e.g. messages/records, files, data bases) and hierarchies of processing systems (e.g. modules, programs, computer applications). The concepts have been built into a structured precedence analyser, CAM02, which is now available for field trials, demonstrations and practical use. This program requires little investment to exploit it and is a useful software aid for systems analysts, designers and programmers.
