In order to tackle the development of concurrent and distributed systems, the active object programming model provides a high-level abstraction to program concurrent behaviours. There exists already a variety of active object frameworks…

Multi-threading allows agents to pursue a heterogeneous collection of tasks in an orderly manner. The view of multi-threading that emerges from thread algebra is applied to the case where a single agent, who may be human, maintains a…

Parallel hardware makes concurrency mandatory for efficient program execution. However, writing concurrent software is both challenging and error-prone. C++11 provides standard facilities for multiprogramming, such as atomic operations with…

This paper presents a multiagent approach as a paradigm for scheduling parallel jobs in a parallel system. Scheduling parallel jobs is performed as a means to balance the load of a system in order to improve the performance of a parallel…

We present a set of novel ideas on design and implementation of monitor objects for multi-threaded programs. Our approach has two main goals: (a) increase parallelism in monitor objects and thus provide performance gains (shorter runtimes)…

We model actors based on truly concurrent process algebra, and capture the actor model in the following characteristics: (1) Concurrency: all actors execute concurrently; (2) Asynchrony: an actor receives and sends messages asynchronously;…

Channel- and actor-based programming languages are both used in practice, but the two are often confused. Languages such as Go provide anonymous processes which communicate using buffers or rendezvous points---known as channels---while…

The continued improvements in language model capability have unlocked their widespread use as drivers of autonomous agents, for example in coding or computer use applications. However, the core of these systems has not changed much since…

Multi-threaded programs are expected to improve responsiveness and conserve resources by dividing an application process into multiple threads for concurrent processing. However, due to scheduling and the interaction of multiple threads,…

Concurrent programs executing on NUMA architectures consist of concurrent entities (e.g. threads, actors) and data placed on different nodes. Execution of these concurrent entities often reads or updates states from remote nodes. The…

Agent-based modeling (ABM) is a bottom-up modeling approach, where each entity of the system being modeled is uniquely represented as an independent decision-making agent. Large scale emergent behavior in ABMs is population sensitive. As…

Actor systems are a flexible model of concurrent and distributed programming, which are efficiently implementable, and avoid many classic concurrency bugs by construction. However actor systems must still deal with the challenge of messages…

The actor model of computation has been designed for a seamless support of concurrency and distribution. However, it remains unspecific about data parallel program flows, while available processing power of modern many core hardware such as…

We derive an abstract computational model from a sequential computational model that is generally used for function execution. This abstract computational model allows for the concurrent execution of functions. We discuss concurrent models…

Recent mainstream programming languages such as Erlang or Scala have renewed the interest on the Actor model of concurrency. However, the literature on the static analysis of actor systems is still lacking of mature formal methods. In this…

Recent advancements in Large Language Model~(LLM)-based Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) have demonstrated remarkable potential for tackling complex decision-making tasks. However, existing frameworks inevitably rely on serialized execution…

Programming models for distributed and heterogeneous machines are rapidly growing in popularity to meet the demands of modern workloads. Task and actor models are common choices that offer different trade-offs between development…

We introduce an object-oriented framework for parallel programming, which is based on the observation that programming objects can be naturally interpreted as processes. A parallel program consists of a collection of persistent processes…

In this paper we study the scheduling of parallel and real-time recurrent tasks. Firstly, we propose a new parallel task model which allows recurrent tasks to be composed of several threads, each thread requires a single processor for…

This paper presents an approach that exploits Java annotations to provide meta information needed to automatically transform plain Java programs into parallel code that can be run on multicore workstation. Programmers just need to decorate…
