Integrated facilities for dynamic visualization provide sample but powerful means for debugging and domain-oriented animation. SAL agents are arranged on a set of 2D worksheets which can be distributed over different machines. An agent's program is defined by the means of a table specifying a set of state transition rules with a condition and a sequence of actions each. Beyond basic computation and communication, actions can dynamically modify the agent's depiction, its program, and spawn arbitrary processes. A couple of examples demonstrate SAL's applicability in various domains like electronic systems design and process management."}],"user_id":"5786","department":[{"_id":"672"}],"_id":"39432","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"keyword":["software prototyping","distributed programming","authoring languages","software agents","program visualisation","parallel languages"],"publication_identifier":{"isbn":["0-7695-0981-9"]},"citation":{"ama":"Müller W, Meyer A, Zabel H.
