Hi, We have an opening for "Chief of Architecture & Design" for our client a "Multinational, based in Noida". Position would require candidates to relocate in...

HEllo Friends I am vijay krishnan i need a help from u all, i need to know abt the cache technique in MDA where there is no database and the data's are stored...
Responding to Krishnan... ... I'm afraid you will need to provide some additional explanation. What "cache technique" are you talking about? Caching and...
Hi, all: It's my first post to this group. I'm happy to find this place to share the experience with all you. Below are some questions I encounter when I read...
Responding to McNeile, Well, this should open a lot of old wounds. B-) ... Since I'm always available when there's a call to controversy, I have a couple of...
H.S. ... Neither am I! I was talking about code, not PIMs. Sorry if this was not clear. ... By imperative I been "having side-effects" (contrast a side-effect...
Responding to McNeile... ... Another basis of disconnect since I view the world through PIM-colored glasses and regard the PSM and code as an entirely...
H.S. ... I don't understand. Which of the following do you mean: a. There are two different state-machines that could describe the simple Bank Account? If so,...
Dear all Maybe it was just me that had this problem, but my first attempt to post this message never got distributed. So I am reposting it. Apologies if you...
H.S. Another few points and questions: ... Imagine two conceptually asynchronous processes, P and Q. P polls for an event A and then generates event B and then...
Responding to McNeile... ... This one. It matters because there are other considerations, such as long term maintainability, that drive the decision over a...
Responding to McNeile... ... You are thinking at the application level while I am thinking at the computing machine level. You already indicated how it is...
H.S. ... By the same result, I meant the same design of state-machine. So the long term maintainability etc is also the same. Perhaps you interpreted "result"...
H.S. ... It is the application level that is the issue here. Time-slicing requires pre-emption and is therefore a mechanism for implementing concurrency. My...
Responding to McNeile... ... Yes, I took it to mean the results of the problem solution. The state machines will definitely be different between the two...
Responding to McNeile... ... Only if you have a friendly OS to hide the serialization. B-) Back in my formative years using plugbloards we didn't have such...
H.S. ... Not in the case of my P and Q example, I'm afraid! It requires either emulated concurrency (time slicing) or real concurrency (two processors) to run...
H.S. More on the P and Q example: The problem is that if, say, P is scheduled to run first it will hog the processor (doing its polling for event A) unless...
H.S. ... Excellent! Can you tell me what the two state machines for the Bank Account would look like? ... I don't map at all. In the Protocol Approach, the...
Ashley, Thanks for starting an interesting discussion with your paper. Here are my comments on it. General Points: I found that the examples and some of the...
... Not inherently a quibble, but perhaps incidental to the issue being discussed here - but I do not see why Action Languages have to be imperative. One could...
Sri ... Perhaps the problem is nomenclature. I make two (orthogonal) distinctions: 1. Procedural vs. Declarative. 2. Imperative vs. Functional. The first is...
Responding to McNeile... ... Your description was: Imagine two conceptually asynchronous processes, P and Q. P polls for an event A and then generates event B...
Responding to McNeile... ... No, because we haven't specified all the requirements. For example, it is not clear whether Account's responsibilities include...
... I'm afraid I am having a hard time grasping the distinction without a specific example. you appear to be saying that deriving the protocol from the ...
