In re: Adapting to Babel:

Some years ago, it was pointed out in email that the adaptive approach beneath the research field we work on is a very powerful and general theoretical—and practical—framework that offers almost unbounded application frontiers when dealing with solving very complex problems. Adaptive formalisms share a unique, attractive property: they allow describing easily computer solutions which state rigorously both the behavior of the system being described and the dynamic way it is expected to reactively impose input-driven self-modifications.

By describing dynamic behaviors, such formalisms are able to specify learning properties and intelligent behavior in a rather natural way without supplementary attached descriptions in any extra notation.

Jackson’s context-sensitive grammars, notation, and development tool offer a very practical extra facility that allows us to take in practice many of the benefits of this fascinating technology. Jackson’s book is—as far as I can see—the first to give the reader both the theoretical and practical flavors of this technology, as well as an up-to-date, broad, and deep survey of the history of the field.
