  abstract=      "This paper considers some questions prompted by a brief
     review of the
history of computing. Why is programming so
     hard? Why is concurrency
considered an
     \textquotedbladvanced\textquotedbl subject? What's the
     matter with Objects?
Where did all the Maths go?  In
     searching for answers, the paper looks
at some concerns over
     fundamental ideas within object orientation (as
represented
     by modern programming languages), before focussing on
     the
concurrency model of communicating processes and its
     particular
expression in the occam family of languages. In
     that focus, it looks
at the history of occam, its underlying
     philosophy (Ockham's Razor),
its semantic foundation on
     Hoare's CSP, its principles of process
oriented design and
     its development over almost three decades into
occam-pi
     (which blends in the concurrency dynamics of
     Milner's
pi-calculus). Also presented will be an urgent need
     for
rationalisation - occam-pi is an experiment that has
     demonstrated
significant results, but now needs time to be
     spent on careful review
and implementing the conclusions of
     that review. Finally, the future
is considered. In
     particular, is there a future?"
