Dogelog in the Park: A Barriered Statechart Simulator (Re: ANN: Dogelog Player 2.2.6 (π-WAM if-then-else))

Show key headers only | View raw

Hi,

In 1984 David Harel wrote a charming paper
about statecharts to visualize complex system
state and behaviour. After a $80 million
acquisition and the expiry of patents. The
2015 W3C XML standard for statecharts has
an appendix D showing a reference implementation.

Unlike the W3C appendix D take, the simulator
is a homomorphism of next/3, with an intercept
for cancellations. By using maplist/3 and
not concurrent_maplist/3 we added a barrier.
We can now let the little dog play fetch in
some nature park, just like in the
Stately AI demo page.

Bye
