Abstract

Gina is an object-oriented language concept for parallel hierarchically-structured data-driven programs. Moreover, it is a Petri net language based on dynamically modified, interpreted nets. Gina provides an easy usable concept of persistency by storing and loading contents of the private variables of an object. The abstraction level of the Gina concept is between that of relational and functional languages on one hand, and process oriented and procedural object-oriented languages on the other hand
