Mixing Metaphors: Actors as Channels and Channels as Actors
Channeland 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 languages such as Erlang provide addressable processes—known as actors—each with a single incoming message queue. The lack of a common representation makes it difficul...
متن کاملInteraction of simulated actors with the environment
The current paper explores the possibilities of an improvement of the interaction of an ACT-R actor with its environment including other actors. This is done in the framework of a project aiming at a multi-actor simulation environment based on the ACT-R architecture. Two objections against traditional cognitive architectures like Soar and ACT-R, namely the lack of physical grounding and the lac...
متن کاملFirms as Social Actors
This essay asks what firms are, whether they are ‘real’ social actors, and whether their actions can be traced without remainder to the actions of living people or whether there is some irreducible aspect of their existence or operation that must be attributed to the organization itself. It describes firms as ongoing, multilateral relational contracts from whose operation – that is, from perfor...
متن کاملTraining physicians in communication skills with adolescents using teenage actors as simulated patients.
Role-play exercises with simulated patients may serve the purpose of training professionals to develop appropriate communication skills with adolescents. Authentic adolescent responses toward the physicians may be achieved by actors who themselves are in their teenage years. We describe our experience in continuing medical education programmes for primary care physicians aimed at improving thei...
متن کاملNon-instructional Linguistic Communication with Virtual Actors
In this paper, we explore a new paradigm for natural language communication with autonomous agents. While the dominant paradigm is to use natural language instructions from which the agent behaviour is generated, we investigate how natural language input can influence a pre-existing planbased behaviour, by interfering with the various types of sub-goals in such a plan. Using as a testbed a full...
