This book focuses on a class of coordination models where multiple pieces of software coordinate their activities through some shared dataspace. The book has three parts. Part 1 presents the main coordination models studied in this book (Gamma, LO, TAO, LambdaN). Part 2 focuses on various semantics aspects of coordination, applied mainly to Gamma. Part 3 presents actual implementations of coordination models and an application.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean-Marc Andreoli\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1860940234\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781860940231\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Imperial College Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 6.00w x 1.10d","brand":"Jean-Marc Andreoli","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48443278000383,"sku":"9781860940231","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9ee24078-38bf-4a98-aa06-cec5db181f30.jpg?v=1777204444","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/coordination-programming-jean-marc-andreoli-9781860940231","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
