Scripting: Higher-Level Programming for the 21st Century ( John K. Ousterhout ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1998-03)

- Increases in computer speed and changes in the application mix are making scripting languages more and more important for the applications of the future. Scripting languages differ from system programming languages in that they are designed for "gluing" applications together. They use typeless approaches to achieve a higher level of programming and more rapid application development than system programming languages.
