81. The Starlog Project At The University Of Waikato Declarative temporal logic programming language for general purpose programming, simulation, modeling reactive systems. Starlog programs consist of 2 components a set of timed facts, a set of temporal logic rules. Somewhat like Prolog. http://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/Research/starlog/index.html

A new Logic Programming Language The Starlog Project What is Starlog? Motivation Starlog Concepts Examples ... Department Home What is Starlog? Starlog is a pure-logic programming language designed to overcome some of the problems inherient in traditional approaches to logic programming. As a result, Starlog is designed to be a general purpose programming language, and is particularly useful for simulation, and for modelling reactive systems. Although most logic programming languages (e.g. Prolog) are query driven (i.e. are evaluated "top-down"), Starlog programs are evaluated "bottom-up". That is, as a Starlog program executes, it builds a model of all the true facts that can be derived from rules in the program. The evaluation of Starlog programs is controlled using a stratification order. Motivation Traditionally, logic programming languages have never been able to compete with the popularity of other language paradigms. We attribute this to: Most implementations of logic programs being less efficient at run time than equivalent programs from other language paradigms. The introduction of extra-logical operators that improve efficiency often break the declarative semantics of logic programs.

LAST UPDATE: 12/13/00 This Learning Module is constantly being updated! This is the most current version of Learning Module VI; however, the study guide needs to be written (for the independent learner) and some of the content sections, links, and assessment tools need to be fine-tuned. (Nothing is wrong, just imperfect!) Note that the blinking text designates things that I need to work on; the material is not wrong, but can be improved. (Don't worry, I don't like blinking text, either, so there will not be any in the finished product!) LEARNING MODULE VI SURVEY OF PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES THAT ARE ASSOCIATED WITH THE WEB Computer languages are software (translators) that allow a developer to program a computer system ; The most common use of computer languages is to write programs. Numerous programming languages have been developed to facilitate the translation of the developer's algorithms (procedures for accomplishing tasks) into language programs that a computer can execute. The following over-simplified survey separates all computer languages into three categories: low, high, and very-high, after which it focuses primarily on examples used for Web applications, especially markup languages, Java, and JavaScript.

87. Parallel Programming With MPI Workshop Parallel programming with MPI general Announcement. Many potential participantscannot set aside two full days out of their busy schedules for a workshop. http://alliance.osc.edu/mpi/

Parallel Programming with MPI General Announcement Many potential participants cannot set aside two full days out of their busy schedules for a workshop. To respond to the scheduling needs of our audience, OSC and PACS are offering four weekly half day sessions. Each session is approximately four hours long and will be held on consecutive Wednesday afternoons from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. eastern, beginning October 1, 2003 through October 22, 2003. This MPI workshop is sponsored by the Alliance Partners for Advanced Computational Services (PACS). Join us at OSC or over the Access Grid at one of the participating sites Description One of the basic methods of programming for parallel computing is the use of message passing libraries. These libraries manage transfer of data between instances of a parallel program running (usually) on multiple processors in a parallel computing architecture. MPI is intended as a standard implementation of the "message passing" model of parallel computing. This model is extremely general and useful. Essentially, any type of parallel computation can be cast in the message passing form. This model can be implemented on a wide variety of platforms and generally allows more control over data location and flow within a parallel applications. Topics covered include: Wednesday, October 1, 2003 (1:00p to 5:00p Eastern)

General Articles WFC Programming Concepts Microsoft Windows Foundation Classes for Java (WFC) provides a framework of Java packages that support components targeted for the Windows operating system and the Dynamic HTML object model. WFC is tightly integrated with the Microsoft Visual J++ development environment and provides a full set of Windows controls written in Java. Building a Java application for Windows is made much easier by this tight integration and the support of features such as IntelliSense, the Forms Designer, the Application Wizard, and the Object Browser. While these Visual J++ features put you well on your way to creating applications, you'll probably want to understand the structure and logic behind the packages and classes that make up WFC. The purpose of this section is to provide a conceptual framework for the WFC packages and classes and to explain some of the fundamental WFC models. Many of the packages exist as infrastructure for the component model and can be ignored by developers focusing on using the WFC controls. Other packages are most easily accessed from the Visual J++ Forms Designer. When you start exploring the WFC library, you'll want to know which packages and classes are important for your particular application. The following topics are covered in this section:

Pre-defined C/C++ Compiler Macros My programming philosophy My personal opinions about programming. Anybody who learns a structured programming language and some data types can program nearly anything. There is nothing special about being able to write program that performs some deterministic, calculable task. What makes a program good, is what you do beyond this. This may include things such as performance optimization, size optimization, flexibility or portability. In my programming experience I have spent a considerable amount of time considering performance optimization. I have encountered many ideas that have shaped my general approach to speeding up my code. Programming optimization methods What is the best programming language to start with? This is a recurring thread in the USENET programming newsgroups. While I've never done a study in this, I can give you my observations from my own experience. Beginner programmer recommendations.

Programming Optimization by Paul Hsieh This site best viewed at 1920x960 with 24 bit color on a high end SONY trinitron projection screen HDTV but ought to look just fine at 640x480, 256 colors. Introduction Code Architecture Low Level Strategies Common Misconceptions ... High Level vs. Low Level Introduction This is a page about the elusive subject of program performance optimization. Before you proceed towards such lofty goals, you should examine your reasons for doing so. Optimization is but one of many desirable goals in software engineering, and is often antagonistic to other important goals such as stability, maintainability, and portability. At its most cursory level (efficient implementation, clean non-redundant interfaces) optimization is beneficial and should always be applied. But at its most intrusive (inline assembly, pre-compiled/self-modified code, loop unrolling, bit-fielding, superscalar and vectorizing) it can be an unending source of time consuming implementation and bug hunting. Be cautious and wary of the cost of optimizing your code. You will probably notice a large slant towards Intel x86 based optimization techniques, which shouldn't surprise many, since that is where my background is strongest. On the other hand I have used various other architectures, run profilers and debuggers on a variety of non-x86 UNIX boxes; I have tried to be as general as possible where I can. However, many of the recommendations and techniques may simply not work for your processor or environment. In that event, I should emphasize that first hand knowledge is always better than following advice. I would also appreciate any

As full as other CLP(R)s solves linear equations over rational or real valued variables, and covers lazy treatment of nonlinear equations. http://www.ai.univie.ac.at/clpqr/

clp(Q,R) The implementation is at least as complete as other existing clp(R) implementations: It solves linear equations over rational or real valued variables, covers the lazy treatment of nonlinear equations, features a decision algorithm for linear inequalities that detects implied equations, removes redundancies, performs projections (quantifier elimination), allows for linear dis-equations, and provides for linear optimization. The software has been developed at The Austrian Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence (OFAI) The Department of Medical Cybernetics and Artificial Intelligence (IMKAI) and during my spare time Availability Earlier versions of the solver were distributed in the form of a clone of SICStus Prolog that provided extensible unification via attributed variables. To date, attributed variables and solvers on top of it have been integrated into the general distribution of following Prolog systems: SICStus Prolog 3 ECLiPSe Prolog at ECRC ECLiPSe Prolog at IC-PARC CIAO Prolog ...

93. The Genesis Of MUMPS And MUG The story of the creation of the MUMPS programming language at The Massachusetts general Hospital, and its development into a procedural, interpreted generalpurpose programming language oriented towards database applications. By Glen Steinbach. http://207.192.157.194/MDC/genesis.htm

The Genesis of MUMPS and MUG When Glen Steinbach accepted the position as Chair of the MUMPS Users' Group in 1985, he delivered the text on the following pages as his maiden-speech. I've often seen parts of this reproduced; here is the complete text. The Genesis of MUMPS and MUG by Glen Steinbach In the beginning was the sky, and woods, and COBOL. And Octo Barnett looked out over the lab at Massachusetts General Hospital and said, "I will have a computer system for this lab." And contracts were let and work began. But this was the time of Assembly Language and early COBOL, and the Lab System needed better tools. Three young software shepherds named Pappalardo, Greenes and Marble heard a calling and followed it to the basement of the Hospital. There, in the corner of the animal lab, stood a PDP-7, and the creation of a new software system began. The three shepherds obeyed new and unwritten commandments: Thou shalt not declare variable types or file sizes. Thou shalt not KILL, except for globals and variables. Thou shalt not covet they neighbor's UCI.

Set of system modules provides many operations on standard data types integers, lists, characters, strings, sets, programs. http://www.cs.bris.ac.uk/~jwl/escher.html

Bristol CS Index Research Escher Escher is a declarative, general-purpose programming language that integrates the best features of both functional and logic programming languages. It has types and modules, higher-order and meta-programming facilities, concurrency, and declarative input/output. Escher also has a collection of system modules, providing numerous operations on standard data types such as integers, lists, characters, strings, sets, and programs. The main design aim is to combine in a practical and comprehensive way the best ideas of existing functional and logic languages, such as Haskell and So far, the design of the language has been completed and work is well advanced on the design and implementation of a suitable abstract machine for the language in close collaboration with the BRISK Project for which a similar abstract machine is needed. Current work also includes the design and implementation of suitable meta-programming facilities. The main intended applications of Escher in the near future are to machine learning. These applications are being developed in the context of higher-order inductive declarative programming in the machine learning project. Currently, a generalised decision-tree learning algorithm is being developed and applications of this to suitable industrial and commercial problems are planned.

This timeline explores some of the key events of components and object-oriented programming in the last 50 years. We could have gone back further to John von Neumann's 1946 proposals that changed computer architecture forever, or perhaps further back to ENIAC, Babbage or even Pascal. However, we decided to begin in 1951 since the birth of the widely publicized UNIVAC seems to spark the commercial engine that drives the modern pursuit of object-oriented programming and development. This commercial revolution of computers, helped along the way a decade later by IBM's 1400 series in 1961, built the momentum for developing programming languages that could encapsulate object-oriented concepts. Besides, starting this timeline in 1951 makes for a nice round number of years for us to cover in this edition. Future versions will probably cover much more!

J B urg: a Bottom-Up Rewrite Machine Generator for Java A bottom-up rewrite machine is a compiler construction tool that is often used in the compiler's back end to convert a tree-structured representation of a program into machine code or, in Java's case, bytecode. JBurg can also be used as a general-purpose dynamic programming engine. JBurg is descended from iburg -class BURGs, described in Fraser, Hanson, and Proebsting's paper, "Engineering a Simple, Efficient Code Generator Generator." JBurg brings similar O(N) minimum-cost tree rewriting capabilities to Java, and also allows the programmer to specify transitions between non-terminal states, that are significantly more powerful than iburg's transitive closures: JBurg transformation rules allow the transformation to inject additional program logic, which makes a JBurg specification more like a grammar than like a list of pattern-matching rules. JBurg's documentation is designed to be viewed using the frames feature. If you see this message, you are using a non-frame-capable web client.
