Zusammenfassung:	The basic problems in the design and implementation of large software systems are reviewed. Using a high level language, such as PL/1, to implement a large software system has many advantages. Several of the major advantages and how they contribute to the solution of the major implementation problems are discussed. It is pointed out that none of the high level languages existing today help in solving the problem of performance prediction. It is then postulated that a language designed specifically for software design and implementation would not only be a major factor in the solution of the basic problems of software design and implementation previously discussed, but it would also make it possible to automatically predict the performance of the software being designed. Some properties of such a language are explored. A direction for obtaining the performance measure through the use of analysis and simulation is explored. (Author).
