-The people behind the AmbientTalk project are: 1 professor, 1 post-doc researcher and 6 PhD students from the [[http://prog.vub.ac.be|Programming Technology Laboratory]] of the [[http://www.vub.ac.be|Vrije Universiteit Brussel]].

-My area of interest is memory management for distributed systems. More specifically, my research is focused on how to reconcile distributed garbage collection (DGC) with the characteristics of mobile ad hoc networks. I am currently investigating a novel family of DGC called [[research:dgc|semi-automatic garbage collection]] and the required language constructs.

- 
-I am interested in how to expressively integrate distribution and concurrency with dynamic, object-oriented programming. I am currently looking into programming abstractions that should allow the inherent concurrency of mobile networks consisting of heterogenous devices (such as RFID tags, sensors...) to be exploited in an expressive way.

- 
-My research consists of investigating how applications can respond to dynamic changes in their environment. In particular, I have studied the changes that give rise to (non-functional) exceptions.  
-I am currently investigating how an [[research:exceptions|ambient-oriented exception handling mechanism]] interacts with various other topics that are studied in the group including advanced referencing abstractions, transactional support and context-awareness.

-The focus of my research is to investigate the context-awareness property in the field of Ambient Intelligence. My particular interest is to explore the ways in which the computational context surrounding mobile applications, may influence their behaviour. For further information about my work please visit the [[research:context|Context-Dependent Behaviour Adaptations]] section of this site.

-== Tom Van Cutsem == 
-[[http://prog.vub.ac.be/~tvcutsem|Homepage]] 
- 
-Specific to my PhD thesis, my research lies in uncovering novel referencing and communication abstractions for mobile ad hoc networks. More specifically, I am currently investigating [[research:ambientrefs|ambient references]], which are a set of object-oriented service discovery abstractions. 
- 
-Within the research track of ambient-oriented programming, I am also particularly interested in the adaptation and application of meta-level architectures and reflection to the AmOP paradigm. 
-Apart from AmOP, my general research interests include dynamic object-oriented programming languages (reuse/composition/object models) and reflection. I am especially intrigued by composition techniques such as traits and delegation.

- 
-My current research topic revolves around collaborative ambient-oriented programming abstractions.  This involves abstractions for expressive coordination of groups of ambient objects.  In this context I am also investigating replication strategies suitable for disconnected operation. 
- 
-Apart from my research on AmOP I also have a general interest in dynamic object-oriented programming languages, concurrency and distribution.
