-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 makes writing software for loosely coupled (mobile) distributed systems as much fun as writing a sequential program in a language 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 the language.

+Keywords are repls, interpreters, dynamic typing, higher-order, first-class, reflection, object, actor and above all: simplicity!
+As usual, the professor is not the one doing the real work. Please read on for more details on our research:
