Dear Clojurers given the Clojure support to concurrent programming and in particular to a notion of "agent", I thought you may be interested to a workshop running in SPLAH 2011 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, 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, one of the co-organizers of AGERE! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
