Talk:Language/action perspective

This is a first stab at content. A better approach might be to define the LAP, to describe applications, and finally to discuss implications thereof (such as the influence on the AI Winter, relationship to John Searle's work, etc.). jmswtlk 12:59, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
What about Action Workflow (may be TM)?
editThe text "Yet, these LAP successes have not found entry into the wider stream of applications." is not IMO correct. That 'entry', and considerable penetration, is Action Workflow.
[Note 'ActionWorkflow' (no spaces) is claimed as a TM in the abstract section of this seminal 1992 paper [1] and is/was a named product of the company sponsoring that paper. 'Action Workflow' (with a space) refers more broadly to the concepts embodying or derived from the LAP view of workflow.]
Here's just one modern (2000) example [2] which begins "The goal of this paper is a reassessment of the Action Workflow approach, a well-known application of the Language Action Perspective (LAP)" [quoted under the fair use doctrine].
I came here because Action Workflow has no Wikipedia page. Really surprised there is no mention of Action Workflow here. Ideally it would have its own page, and be linked from here, but we have to start somewhere.
I find many Google hits for 'Action Workflow' both within Wikipedia and externally, but the work seems fragmented and related to specific toolsets with no emerging web based centre of excellence. Seems ideal for a wiki entry. Unfortunately I've done nothing in this area since 1994, so I will help, but I don't yet feel able to lead.

- As it says above, this was a first attempt to support the AI winter page.
- By all means, add 'Action Workflow' to the content. Winograd references ActionWorkflow on his page without a TM.
- The quote about 'mainstream' comes from the LAP 2004 conference. I had the wrong year. I've read two papers with essentially this theme. This ought to be a separate section, after a better introductory section.
- Also, given all the recent attention we see with the Semantic web, perhaps something about that ought to be added here. jmswtlk 02:39, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
Yes I'm really noob. Forgot to sign my earlier comment. Sorry, Duncan Shannock9 (talk) 20:37, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
- The link http://bookshelved.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?UnderstandingComputersAndCognition leads to a 404 error Klamma (talk) 14:31, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
