    370370Our current approach tries to alleviate some of these issues. If the party is expected to be learning, a parameter {{{negotiationdata}}} is passed to the party at startup, containing a FileLocation. This should contain a non-existing file. The idea is that your party can write essential data to be learned from to this file, and that the learning will take place later in a Learn session. In the meantime, another parameter {{{persistentstate}}} holds info learned so far.

    372 When a Learn session is entered, the party receives again its {{{persistentstate}}}, but now it has enough time to actually learn and update the persistentstate. It now also receives a list of {{{persistentstate}}} objects, containing all the values it received previously. Now the party can read back what it wrote in the previous sessions, do the learning, and update the persistentstate file.

    374374Notice that this approach does not solve the assumption that each party runs on the same machine every time. For now, this is simply assumed to be the case. Our current partiesserver implementations run all parties on a single machine.
