I can't access full text of the article as well (they charge $10 per article
for non-subscribers), but all abstracts are accessible there (with free
registration). So here is the abstract:

Software and the Future of Programming Languages
Alfred V. Aho
Although software is the key enabler of the global information infrastructure,
the amount and extent of software in use in the world today are not widely
understood, nor are the programming languages and paradigms that have been
used to create the software. The vast size of the embedded base of existing
software and the increasing costs of software maintenance, poor security, and
limited functionality are posing significant challenges for the software R&D
community.
