[...] thoughts have parts out of which they are built up. And these parts, these building blocks, correspond to groups of sounds, out of which the sentence expressing the thought is built up, so that the construction of the sentence out of parts of a sentence corresponds to the construction of a thought out of parts of a thought. And as we take a thought to be the sense of a sentence, so we may...

How to compose an Object-Oriented Business Process Model?1

When modelling business processes, we have to address four key elements: On a conceptual level, we have to define Goals, Activities, and Roles. On a pre-implementation physical level we have to define Objects. In this paper, we examine step by step how business processes can be modelled, which data are needed for each step and which result would be produced during each step. Furthermore, we sug...

Synthesizing Probabilistic Composers

Synthesis from components is the automated construction of a composite system from a library of reusable components such that the system satisfies the given specification. This is in contrast to classical synthesis, where systems are always “constructed from scratch”. In the control-flow model of composition, exactly one component is in control at a given time and control is switched to another...

Students as Multimedia Composers

This study is distinguished by distancing itself from the type of multimedia research that looks at the etTects of multimedia instructional units on students. The approach. instead, is within a constructionist learning paradigm and the research task is to take the first steps to begin to know what we don’t know about the student creation of multimedia documents. The outcome of preliminary resea...
