PNtalk: Concurrent Language with MOP
object-oriented Petri nets, open systems, interoperability, Smalltalk, object behavior, meta-object
The PNtalk is a project comprising concurrent language and system based on object-oriented Petri nets (OOPNs). PNtalk benefits from the features of Petri nets (formal nature, suggestive description of parallelism, theoretical background) as well as object-orientedness (abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, and modularity). The purpose of PNtalk is to model, to simulate, to verify, and to prototype concurrent and distributed systems, including systems with dynamic structure. Needed flexibility and adaptability is accomplished by metalevel architecture of PNtalk system. This paper presents key properties of PNtalk, its metaobject architecture and its metaobject protocol (MOP).
