Abstract
Arguments are presented which demonstrate the equivalence of computers (both real and virtual) and programming languages. The machine which job control languages are equivalent to is shown to be a virtual one: operating systems. A suggestion is made that a high level, portable job control language is feasible, and some suggestions as to features of the language are made.
