Programming languages

In the area of programming languages, DISI is engaged on numerous fronts. For example, languages for artificial intelligence are typically based on declarative programming paradigms that include first-class mechanisms for symbolic computation and constructs for rapid prototyping. In addition, DISI is active in research on constraint languages and constraint satisfaction/optimization-based computation paradigms that increasingly include the development of hybrid paradigms that combine classical artificial intelligence techniques with mathematical programming and operations research techniques. Moreover, an intense research activity concerns agent-oriented programming, studied as a high-level programming paradigm for the design and implementation of concurrent and distributed systems, as a conceptual evolution of concurrent object-oriented programming and actor-based programming. From the foundational point of view, mathematical models such as lambda-calculus or process calculus are used in order to develop theories generally applicable to programming languages.
