I stumbled about this question via a Google search . . . I do work on the Ptolemy project. We shipped Ptolemy II 7.0.1 last week. There are two versions of Ptolemy. Ptolemy Classic is what was used as a basis for the Agilent product. We at UC Berkeley are no longer developing Ptolemy Classic. (http://ptolemy.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptIIfaq.htm#ptolemy%20classic)
We are actively developing Ptolemy II though. Ptolemy primarily uses actors to describe systems. Ptolemy II is written in Java, has a BSD license and is used to experiment with Models of Computation (MoCs). We are especially interested in concurrency and using hierarchy to compose different models of computation. Someone asked about multicore development. Ptolemy II does have code generation capabilities where we generate C code. We are working on functionality for multicores, but we are a ways away from that right now. We are involved in the Intel/Microsoft Parlab at UC Berkeley. Someone mention bio, Ptolemy II is used as the basis of the Kepler Project (http://www.kepler-project.org), which is targeted towards biologists and ecologists. Currently one area in which we are active involves distributed applications. The PTIDES project (http://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptides) focuses on deploying applications on distributed networks that have well understood timing characteristics. _Christopher On Apr 11, 10:51 am, "Sriram Durbha" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > yup :) > and it ships as part of a commercial product > too.http://eesof.tm.agilent.com/products/e8823a-new.html > disclaimer: i work for Agilent, but don't work on Ptolemy. > why do you ask? > > On Thu, Apr 10, 2008 at 5:34 PM, Raoul Duke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > >http://ptolemy.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/main.htm --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to "Bay Area Functional Programmers" To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/bayfp?hl=en -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
