The duality of fault-tolerant system structures
1993
Software, Practice & Experience
The first model incorporates objects and actions as the entities for program construction while the second model employs communicating processes. ...
Applications in the areas such as office information and database systems typically use the first model while applications in the area of real time process control are usually based on the second model ...

Analysis and Design of Distributed Pair Programming System
2010
Intelligent Information Management
Pair Programming (PP) that has gained extensive focus within pedagogical and industrial environments is a programming practice in which two programmers use the same computer to work together on analysis ...
By means of activity theory and language-action theory, some basic requirements of the DPP system are presented. ...
The conversation for action forms the central fabric of a DPP. In a simple conversation for action, the driver (A) in a pair programming makes a request to the navigator (B). ...

Integrating jason in a multi-agent platform with support for interaction protocols
2011
Proceedings of the compilation of the co-located workshops on DSM'11, TMC'11, AGERE!'11, AOOPES'11, NEAT'11, & VMIL'11 - SPLASH '11 Workshops
In this paper we present a proposal to add to Jason (an interpreter of an extended version of AgentSpeak) a new level of abstraction in the task of programming conversations between agents. ...
Therefore, the agents can use this knowledge in its reasoning process. This approach can be easily transfered to others agent programming languages and platforms. ...
For instance, the programmer can write some code in Java to program the environment, or to construct Jason "internal actions". ...

A Computational Semantics for Communicating Rational Agents Based on Mental Models
[chapter]
2010
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
As coordination is particularly important, we introduce the concept of a conversation to synchronize actions and communication in a multi-agent system. ...
For agents that derive their choice of action from their beliefs and goals it is natural to facilitate communication about both these attitudes in an agent programming language. ...
The program discussed in Section 5 provides examples of various user-specified actions. ...

Feature Interaction Detection in Active Networks
[chapter]
2002
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Problems arising with supplementary service programs uploaded by users: such as event conversion and detection of feature interactions between the programs, are presented and their solutions are proposed ...
Unlike most conventional architectures, here, one common execution environment is used for execution with all up-loaded programs. 12 service programs were tested to evaluate the proposed systems. ...
Action Executing Part On receiving an Action-description from the interpreter, the Action executing part of the program analyzes it and decides which programs are to be executed and in what order. ...

The design and implementation of a high-level language converter
1991
Software, Practice & Experience
These general issues are illustrated in terms of an account of the design and implementation of one particular converter, which converts programs from Pascal-SC (a Pascal dialect) to Ada. ...
A specific aim of the presentation is to provide guidance for those contemplating future language conversion projects. ...
These comprise less straightforward conversions, actions that were not implemented because the effort involved was not justified by the consequent savings in handediting effort, and actions requiring further ...
