pC++ is an object-parallel extension to the C++ programming language. This paper describes the current language deenition and illustrates the programming style. Examples of parallel linear algebra operations are presented and a fast poisson solver is described in complete detail.

A microcomputer-based simulator for digital control systems is proposed. The proposed simulator is a hybrid system in which the plant is simulated by conventional method of analog computers and other parts of the system including generation of input signal is performed digitally, using a Z-80 based microcomputer. To overcome the difficulty of programming in assembly language, and at the same ti...

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the computational efficiency of algorithms for calculating shortest paths when they are correctly coded by using the C programming language. This paper thoroughly measures the benefit of using the C programming language for coding shortest path algorithms. For each algorithm, we suggest computer implementation that take full advantage of the pointer...

Forward inference techniques such as sequential Monte Carlo and particle Markov chain Monte Carlo for probabilistic programming can be implemented in any programming language by creative use of standardized operating system functionality including processes, forking, mutexes, and shared memory. Exploiting this we have defined, developed, and tested a probabilistic programming language intermedi...

‘‘Object-Oriented Programming’’ and ‘‘Data Abstraction’’ have become very common terms. Unfortunately, few people agree on what they mean. I will offer informal definitions that appear to make sense in the context of languages like Ada, C++, Modula2, Simula, and Smalltalk. The general idea is to equate ‘‘support for data abstraction’’ with the ability to define and use new types and equate ‘‘su...

This paper explains how advanced programming language concepts can be used to increase the readability and maintainability of control process software. The programming language concepts presented in this paper are: function pointers, variable argument functions and three concepts related to object-oriented programming: polymorphism, relationship of composition between classes and class methods....

The C Object System (COS) is a small C library which implements high-level concepts available in CLOS, OBJECTIVEC and other object-oriented programming languages: uniform object model (class, metaclass and property-metaclass), generic functions, multi-methods, delegation, properties, exceptions, contracts and closures. COS relies on the programmable capabilities of the C programming language to...

GKS, the international standard for 20 graphics software, provides a set of functionalities which are specified in a language independent manner. However, for GKS to be used, a binding must be defined for some host programming language. To date a FORTRAN binding [1] has been accepted, and proposals for bindings in Pascal [8] and Ada are under consideration in ISO. Possible bindings for C [7] an...

This paper details the design of a new concurrent process-oriented programming language, Rain. The language borrows heavily from occam-π and C++ to create a new language based on process-oriented programming, marrying channel-based communication, a clear division between statement and expression, and elements of functional programming. An expressive yet simple type system, coupled with template...

In this paper we present the programming language cT, intended for the development of portable software for multiprocessors in the environment supporting the computation model \autotransformation of evaluation network". The language was designed as an extension of C programming language with the new language primitives that represent the notions of the computation model. As a result, there was ...
