Abstract
The author discusses the close relationship between data and operations and suggests that a compiler should be able to check that data structures are accessed by meaningful procedures only. This idea leads to the introduction of shared classes—a programming notation for the monitor concept. The notation is illustrated by a message buffer for concurrent processes.
