Abstract
Effort is needed to overcome the distance between EDP people and software people. Probably the best way is to develop, as an interface between the two fields, a common language used by EDP people to formalize ideas and by software people as a specification language to produce efficient implementations of the EDP solutions. Such a specification language would be as simple as possible; furthermore, as an interface, it has to be used in connection with different environments. The paper is driven by this attitude. It does not propose a solution to the problem posed. Rather it gives an example of how it is possible to take into account many of the EDP problems in a simple notation.
