Projects
--------
EMS Runtime environment: A workflow programming language and environment that allows the development of complex information systems that can handle intense workload conditions and multiple business organizations or departments. Pashev was responsible for developing the runtime environment, the runtime process evaluation, and the own interpreter development [1, 2] .
EMSG project: An established Client-Server workflow management platform that focuses on improving and expanding the platform, achieving better automation and scalability. Pashev participated in this project as a programmer software applications at Dextro Research Ltd. [1, 2].
PeUScript, EMS, and others: Cross translators, interpreters, and execution environments for various programming languages that Pashev created as part of his work at Dextro Research Ltd. [1, 2].
GDBMS: A software platform for execution of graph database applications that supports a directed, labelled hyper-graph formalism. Pashev co-authored a paper on this project with George Totkov and Lilyana Rusenova [3].
