 Whereas the example provided above may seem a little contrived, the reflective capabilities of AmbientTalk allow it to be extended with many abstraction relating to distributed computing for mobile ad hoc networks (AmbientTalk's main domain of application). An example of a language construct which is conceived as a reflective extension to the language is for instance futures, which are discussed in the next chapter of this tutorial. Whereas the example provided above may seem a little contrived, the reflective capabilities of AmbientTalk allow it to be extended with many abstraction relating to distributed computing for mobile ad hoc networks (AmbientTalk's main domain of application).

 The Meta-Object Protocol of AmbientTalk can be divided into a series of independent protocols. Whereas the full semantics and signature of the meta-methods can be found in the [[http://prog.vub.ac.be/amop/at2langref/edu/vub/at/objects/Object.html|language reference]], this section provides an overview of the various protocols. The Meta-Object Protocol of AmbientTalk can be divided into a series of independent protocols.
