+ | In the past, I have been active in the design and formalisation of prototype-based object-oriented programming languages. After a small detour in AOP (where I introduced monads in AOP and identified the need for cflow with jumping aspects), I'm currently working with the ambient group on the design and implementation of ambient-oriented programming languages. My current mission is to come up with language constructs that make writing software for loosely coupled (mobile) distributed systems as much fun as writing sequential programs in languages like Scheme, Smalltalk or Haskell. This is done by inventing new programming language abstractions and by hiding the technical burden as much as possible in the interpreter of those languages. | ||

+ | The dynamic nature of ambient oriented applications makes it impossible to structure them as monolithic programs with a fixed input and output. Instead, a distributed event-driven architecture is required. Current event-driven architectures require distributed application components to react to events via a carefully crafted network of observers, event handlers or callback mechanisms which are scattered throughout the application code and can be triggered at any point in time. Such architectures are hard to develop, understand and maintain in all but the most trivial cases. | ||

+ | This poses a problem when we look at the new generation of disposable processing hardware, such as RFID tags. Ubiquitous applications will not only consist of peer-to-peer interactions, | ||
