SGPG incorporates the data a!epenakncies, control flow, control dependencies, communication, and synchronization primitives of the concurrent program it represents. The features of SGPG and the process of its construction are outlined. Algorithms for generating the SGPG representation of an imperative concurrent programs are discussed in detail. The producer consumer problem is used as an illustrative example. SGPG can be used for the study and analysis of concurrent programs, research involving the implementation, testing, , meaasurement of cognitive complexity, and for proving correctness of concurrent programs.

Additionally chants may be rhythmic and include simple melody. Chants can be considered speech or music that can convey emotion. Additionally, a chant can be monotonous, droning, and tedious. Fundamental to a chant is the notion of timing and note patterns. We present here a framework for the synthesis of chants of music notes. These are chants without syllables from spoken language. We introduced Mnemonic capabilities in [1] and utilize these to systematically generate chants. We illustrate our ideas using examples using the notes set{C, D, E, G, A, φ (or silence)}-a Pentatonic Scale (perfect fifths). First, we define, and structure, the use of timing and notes to develop the chant strings. Then we propose the use of mnemonics to develop different styles of musical chants. Finally we suggest the adoption of intonations and syllables for controlled generation of musical chants.

Various aspects of human faculties are tackled using computational models. It is clear that brain as a cognitive machine is significantly different from a computer. A general intelligent machine needs to incorporate primitives that are identical or similar to those intrinsic to human. We argue for the identification, verification, and development of technologies that will deliver core primitives that are fundamental to human cognition that are applicable to various domains. Mnemonics for aural and for visual cognition are presented in [2, 3]. We propose a generalized set of cognitive primitives that can specialized to various applications viz. a) Existential, b) Structured Recurrence, c) Relative Attachment, d) Harmonized Counterparts, e) Cordial Counterparts and e) Discriminate Counterparts.

Core mnemonics are needed to emulate human cognitive behavior. Mnemonics for aural perception have been developed and designed by the authors. These are used for formulating primitive natural language constructs and for automated musical compositions. We now propose and define fundamental mnemonics that form the basis for Visual Perception. These are a) Present, b) Aligned, c) Rotation, d) Link, and e) Combination, and f) Composition. We present our theory using points and linear arrangements.

We present the results of the project that was conducted over 3 years to enable a student-referred to as J-with multiple impairments to learn and use basic life skills. J's impairments include visual, auditory, speech, motor skills, and possibly cognitive skills. Various strategies were used by OT and J knew cause and effect but J could not communicate. We needed to teach discrimination so she can communicate on her own. Traditional teaching methods using visual cues and/or oral expressions were ineffective and hence we used soundas an alternate to language-as a medium to teach J some basic life skills.We trained J to associate sounds with objects. Subsequently through assessment processes we ascertained how well this skill was learned. Progressively we have used and assessed different sounds for different life skill activitiessuch as eating, wiping the face, drinking water, and such. J now has the ability to request using programmed jelly bean switches.
