Book Description
There is a growing interest in programming languages and systems based on nonclassical logics such as temporal logics, interval logics, modal and intuitionistic logics. In fact, a whole new programming paradigm called 'intensional programming' has been created, with applications in a wide range of areas, including parallel programming, dataflow computation, temporal reasoning, scientific computation, real-time programming, temporal and multidimensional databases, spreadsheets, attribute grammars, and Internet programming. This volume presents ongoing research as well as future directions of this new and fascinating area of research.

Declarative Agent Languages and Technologies II
Author: João Leite
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3540319271
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 301
Book Description
The second edition of the workshop on Declarative Agent Languages and Te- nologies (DALT 2004) was held July 2004 in New York City, and was a great success. We saw a signi?cant increase in both the number of submitted papers and workshop attendees from the ?rst meeting, held July 2003 in Melbourne. Nearly 40 research groups worldwide were motivated to contribute to this event by submitting their most recent research achievements, covering a wide variety of the topics listed in the call for papers. More than 30 top researchers agreed to join the Program Committee, which then collectively faced the hard task of selecting the one-day event program. The fact that research in multi-agent systems is no longer only a novel and promising research horizon at dawn is, in our opinion, the main reason behind DALT’s (still short) success story. On the one hand, agent theories and app- cations are mature enough to model complex domains and scenarios, and to successfully address a wide range of multifaceted problems, thus creating the urge to make the best use of this expressive and versatile paradigm, and also pro?t from all the important results achieved so far. On the other hand, bui- ing multi-agent systems still calls for models and technologies that could ensure system predictability, accommodate ?exibility, heterogeneity and openness, and enable system veri?cation.

Intensional Programming I: Based On The Papers At Islip '95
Author: E A Ashcroft
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814548723
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 310
Book Description
There is a growing interest in programming languages and systems, and computational models based on intensional logics — such as temporal logic, interval logic and modal logic — and possible world semantics. In fact, a whole new programming model called intensional programming has emerged with applications in a wide range of areas including parallel programming, dataflow computation, temporal reasoning, scientific computation, software version control, real-time programming, temporal query languages, executable temporal logics, spreadsheets, attribute grammars, and hardware synthesis, to name a few. Intensional Programming is especially suited to application domains where the notion of dynamic change is central.This collection will feature papers by leading researchers in the field of intensional programming dealing with theoretical foundations, design, implementation and prototype development issues, comparative studies, and applications, as well as those describing new challenges arising out of applications. It contains revised and extended versions of the papers presented at the Eighth International Symposium on Languages for Intensional Programming held on May 3-5, 1995 at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia.

Distributed Communities on the Web
Author: Peter Kropf
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3540451110
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
Communities are groupings of distributed objects that are capable of com- nicating, directly or indirectly, through the medium of a shared context. To support communities on a wide scale will require developments at all levels of computing, from low-level communication protocols supporting transparent - cess to mobile objects, through to distributed operating systems, through to high-level programming models allowing complex interaction between objects. This workshop brought together researchers interested in the technical issues of supporting communities. This workshop was the third in the DCW series. The ?rst two, entitled D- tributed Computing on the Web, took place in 1998 and 1999 at the University of Rostock, with proceedings published by the University of Rostock Press. This year, the workshop also incorporated the ISLIP (International Symposium on Languages for Intensional Programming) symposium. The ISLIP symposia have taken place every year since 1988, and have led to two volumes published by World-Scienti?c (Intensional Programming I, 1995, and Intensional Progr- ming II, 2000). While the two conferences emerged from di?erent needs, their focus merged to such an extent that it became clear that a joint conference promised to o?er great opportunities.

Multidimensional Programming
Author: Edward A. Ashcroft
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 0195075978
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
This book describes a powerful language for multidimensional declarative programming called Lucid. Lucid has evolved considerably in the past ten years. The main catalyst for this metamorphosis was the discovery that Lucid is based on intensional logic, one commonly used in studying natural languages. Intensionality, and more specifically indexicality, has enabled Lucid to implicitly express multidimensional objects that change, a fundamental capability with several consequences which are explored in this book. The author covers a broad range of topics, from foundations to applications, and from implementations to implications. The role of intensional logic in Lucid as well as its consequences for programming in general is discussed. The syntax and mathematical semantics of the language are given and its ability to be used as a formal system for transformation and verification is presented. The use of Lucid in both multidimensional applications programming and software systems construction (such as a parallel programming system and a visual programming system) is described. A novel model of multidimensional computation--education--is described along with its serendipitous practical benefits for harnessing parallelism and tolerating faults. As the only volume that reflects the advances over the past decade, this work will be of great interest to researchers and advanced students involved with declarative language systems and programming.

Book Description
This volume contains the proceedings of the IFIPTM 2008, the Joint iTrust and PST Conferences on Privacy, Trust Management and Security, held in Trondheim, Norway from June 18 to June 20, 2008. IFIPTM 2008 provides a truly global platform for the reporting of research, development, policy and practice in the interdependent areas of Privacy, Security, and Trust. Following the traditions inherited from the highly successful iTrust and PST conference series, IFIPTM 2008 focuses on trust, privacy and security from multidisciplinary perspectives. The conference is an arena for discussion about re levant problems from both research and practice in the areas of academia, busi ness, and government. IFIPTM 2008 is an open IFIP conference, which only accepts contributed pa pers, so all papers in these proceedings have passed strict peer review. The pro gram of the conference features both theoretical research papers and reports of real world case studies. IFIPTM 2008 received 62 submissions. The program commit tee selected 22 papers for presentation and inclusion in the proceedings. In addi tion, the program and the proceedings include 3 demo descriptions. The highlights of IFIPTM 2008 include invited talks and tutorials by industri al and academic experts in the fields of trust management, privacy and security, including Jon Bing and Michael Steiner.
