ENGLISH : Lately confessions (1968-) from a french diagnosed middle-adulthood teacher with "Asperger syndrome" (AS, 1981-2013) expert in Educational Neuroscience (EDN) : making sense for a better life-changing between "Sheldon Cooper" (2007-2019), "Forrest Gump" (1994), "Jarod The Pretender" (1996-2000), "Rain Man" (1988), "Astrid Nielsen" (2019-)...

A cooperating multi-pushdown system consists of a tuple of pushdown systems that can delegate the execution of recursive procedures to sub-tuples; control returns to the calling tuple once all sub-tuples finished their task. This allows the concurrent execution since disjoint sub-tuples can perform their task independently. Because of the concrete f...
