In spiking neural P systems with anti-spikes, integers can be represented as the number of spikes/anti-spikes present in a neuron. Thus it is possible to represent increment, decrement, relational operations and assignment statements using spiking neural P systems. With these basic structures, it is also possible to represent programming language constructs like conditional, iterative and diffe...

The paper describes the main features of the integrated environment TOST. The objective of TOST is to be used in Operating Systems, Parallel Programming and Compilers courses. It has to provide a better understanding of the studied topics. TOST is intended to give students an operating system inside view. It includes a multitasking operating system, a compiler for a simple PASCAL-similar progra...

Building on previous research, this study develops a research simulation model for the main factors affecting business innovation performance. It links the properties of knowledge obtained from outside network, firm’s absorptive capacity and the features of a firm’s knowledge network topology to predict innovation performance. We use VB.NET 2005 programming languages to develop simulations to c...

In recent years after the Development and Establishment of MANET [1] according to the Industry Standards and based on optimal performance. We have optimally developed and designed these ad-hoc networks which may be infrastructured or infrastructureless network and the devices in the network communicated using IEEE 802.1x MAC standard [4].

— It is shown that the theory of aplanatic two-mirror telescopes developed by Karl Schwarzschild in 1905 leads to the unified description both the prefocal and the postfocal systems. The class of surfaces in the ZEMAX optical program has been properly extended to ascertain the image quality in exact Schwarzschild aplanats. A comparison of Schwarzschild aplanats with approximate Ritchey–Chrétien...

This dissertation is concerned with efficient compilation of our Java-based, highperformance, library-oriented, SPMD style, data parallel programming language: HPJava. It starts with some historical review of data-parallel languages such as High Performance Fortran (HPF), message-passing frameworks such as p4, PARMACS, and PVM, as well as the MPI standard, and high-level libraries for multiarra...

Several high-level programming languages for programming agents and robots have been proposed in recent years. Each of these languages has its own features and merits. It is still difficult, however, to compare different programming frameworks and evaluate the relative benefits and disadvantages of these frameworks. In this paper, we present a general method for comparing agent programming fram...

Despite his well-known criticisms of popular religion, Hume refers in seemingly complimentary terms to ‘true religion’; in Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion, his character Philo goes so far as to express ‘veneration for’ it. This paper addresses three questions. First, did Hume himself really approve of something that he called ‘true religion’? Second, what did he mean by calling it ‘true’?...

In this paper, we present QHTML, a library for building Web-based applications in Oz. QHTML provides the Oz programmer with a basic set of abstractions through which creating Web-based interfaces becomes similar to traditional graphical toolkits. In the mean time, QHTML is an experiment investigating whether a single language can replace the numerous ad-hoc combined languages/technologies curre...

In this paper we describe the Salieri System, an interactive software environment for structure oriented composition, manipulation, and analysis of music. The system is built on the newly developed Salieri Language, a universal programming language based on a hierarchical model of formal music representation, combining features of traditional functional and procedural programming languages with...
