Each of the processors comprises a transmission-reception portion for transmitting and receiving messages, an object control portion for managing concept and instance objects, an inheritance retrieval portion for recording and retrieving information inherited from upper concept objects, a message pattern retrieval portion for retrieving message patterns, a message procedure storage portion for storing procedures corresponding to the message patterns, and an instance object storage portion for storing instance variables that hold internal states of the instance objects. | |
