Dear FONCers
this year in SPLASH there will be a workshop called
AGERE!
devoted to foster the discussion and research about
ACTORS and AGENTS
as paradigm for computer programming,
as natural evolution (?) of the OO one, embracing a
decentralized mindset
in thinking about problems and designing, programming systems.
In other words:
"Programming systems, languages, applications
based on agents, actors, and decentralized control"
It is meant to synergetically mesh up ideas, discussion and results about
agent and actor systems that appeared in many contexts
- from (OO) concurrent programming to distributed AI
but here with a specific objective, which is exploring their value
(and development) as paradigm for computing, designing, programming,
So it is clearly related to the FONC perspective and "visions", I think.
You can read more here: http://agere2011.apice.unibo.it
We setup also a Google group AGERE! at SPLASH:
https://groups.google.com/group/agere-at-splash?hl=en
open to everyone that would like to discuss and interact about these topics,
and contribute to the event (which will be in October).
It is like to say: "Let's start the workshop now!".
Best,
Alessandro
