Comments on a paper by Lowe

We have read with much interest the paper “Automatic Segmentation of Cyclic Program Structures Based on Connectivity and Processor Timing” by T. C. Lowe [ Comm. ACM 13 , 1 (Jan. 1970), 3-6, 9], and we congratulate the author on the clarity of his exposition. However, we're afraid we must question the technique he describes.
