This study aims at investigating whether Persian native speakers highly advanced in English as a second language (L2ers) can switch to optimal processing strategies in the languages they know and whether working memory capacity (WMC) plays a role in this respect. To this end, using a self-paced reading task, we examined the processing strategies 62 Persian speaking proficient L2ers used to read...

Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs) enable more concise and readable specifications than General Purpose Languages (GPLs). They are for this reason increasingly used. This DSL approach presents, however, many challenges. One of them is the prototyping and implementation of the numerous DSLs that are required to replace a single GPL. This work presents a case study of implementing two telephony lan...

Many extended, C-like languages can be implemented by translating them into C. This paper proposes an extension scheme for SC languages (extended/plain C languages with an S-expression based syntax). The extensions are implemented by transformation rules over S-expressions, that is, Lisp functions with pattern-matching on S-expressions. Thus, many flexible extensions to C can be implemented at ...

Considerando a importância das ações extensionistas para comunidade acadêmica e membros da externa em que universidade está inserida, este trabalho tem como objetivo apresentar um breve relato histórico ação denominada SolinEnglish and Other Languages, desenvolvida na Universidade Estadual do Sudoeste Bahia, UESB, por período de onze anos.

The existing literature on Bantu verbal semantics demonstrated that inherent semantic content of verbs pairs directly with the selection of tense, aspect and modality formatives in Bantu languages like Chasu, Lucazi, Lusamia, and Shiyeyi. Thus, the gist of this paper is the articulation of semantic classification of verbs in Kiswahili based on the selection of TAM types. This is because the sem...

Designing languages and systems for many-core computers is in some respects just like designing for uniprocessors. The challenge is, on the one hand, to develop an efficient organization of data, hardware, and software to accomplish the desired computation and, on the other hand, to invent a notation that is expressive and can be translated automatically to executable instructions. With many-co...
