Programming languages are typically considered to be difficult to implement. However, a programming language tailored to an application domain can be an extremely powerful productivity enhancer. We present a pattern language for implementing languages that gathers together many ideas that are known in the language implementation community that should be more widely known. By applying this patte...

this research intended to determine whether english and persian men and women were different with respect to the use of intensifiers, hedges and tag questions. to conduct the study, r. lakoff's (1975) ideas concerning linguistic differences between males and females were taken into account. in order to gather the most natural-like data, 6 english and 8 persian film• scripts with a family a...

Initial ideas for software solutions usually revolve around specific business problems or opportunities, but they will most often concentrate on some business vision or a mission-critical or mission-central theme, i.e., some specific problem domain which has attendant vocabulary, techniques, equipment, and quality concerns. Therefore, the first purpose of EDUCE is to foster clarity and commonal...

Giving a good presentation is not easy. It takes a lot of discipline and creativity to prepare and give a presentation that, on the one hand, is received positively by its audience and, on the other hand, has the effects desired by the presenter. This paper gives a handful of recommendations that aid in creating a good presentation. These recommendations are put in pattern form and combined int...

Motivation Every software engineer has used techniques to increase the execution speed of the system under development. Some of these techniques are purely technical, i.e. using a more efficient algorithm, others focus on correct distribution of tasks among different system parts, on management and development process, or on feature avoidance. Engineers working in different areas such as databa...

the present study investigated the use of l2 private speech by english foreign language (efl) learners in regulating their mental activities. thirty intermediate adult efl learners took a test of solving challenging english riddles while their voices were being recorded. following, instances of the produced private speech were analyzed in terms of form, content, and function. numerous instances...

We discuss the frequent pattern mining problem in a general setting. From an analysis of abstract representations, summarization and frequent pattern mining, we arrive at a generalization of the problem. Then, we show how the problem can be cast into the powerful language of algorithmic information theory. This allows us to formulate a simple algorithm to mine for all frequent patterns. 1

this study aimed to examine cross-cultural differences in performing refusal of requests between persian native speakers (pnss) and english native speakers (enss) in terms of the frequency of the semantic formulas. also examined in this study was whether persian efl learners would transfer their l1 refusal patterns into the l2, and if there would be a relation between their proficiency level an...

This paper describes a long-term research program on developing ontological foundations for conceptual modeling. This program, organized around the theoretical background of the foundational ontology UFO (Unified Foundational Ontology), aims at developing theories, methodologies and engineering tools with the goal of advancing conceptual modeling as a theoretically sound discipline but also one...
