Sequential formula translation

1983

The syntax of an algorithmic language such as ALGOL is conveniently described as a sequence of states indicated by an element called cellar. Transitions are controlled by admissible state- s ymbol pairs which may be represented by a transition matrix. This description of syntax furnishes at the same time an extremely simple rule for translating into machine programs statements in the algorithmic language. Sequential treatment, however, is not feasible in the case of certain optimizing processes such as recursive address calculation.

The Coexistence of Three Species of Daphnia in the Klostersee: iii. The Simulation Model Coda

1991

The population dynamics of three coexisting Daphnia species are described by means of a discrete event simulation model. The model is formulated in the algorithmic language SIMULA which allows very convenient object-oriented programming. Different compartments of a lake are simulated at different levels of integration, each represented by a PROCESS CLASS in SIMULA: The properties of the lake are deposited in a set of meteorological data which were measured in the field. Fish are simulated as a population with properties which are derived from field observations and Daphnia are represented as individuals. The model shows that hypotheses about the stabilizing mechanisms (seasonal change of en…
