- | From this observation, | + | ====== What is AmbientTalk about? ====== |
- | * **Prototype-based** The mismatch between classes and distribution is well-documented and further aggravated in the context of mobile computing. | + | |
- | * **Non-blocking** To avoid harming the autonomy of the mobile devices, no device should be blocked awaiting either to send a message or receive a result. | + | |
- | * **Communication-Aware** To encompass network failures, objects should be able to keep a log of their own activities, allowing for error recovery. | + | |
- | * **Resource-Aware** Service discovery is an integral part of any ambient-oriented language since resources are encountered dynamically in the ever-changing network topology surrounding a device. | + | |
- | More information can be found in the [[research:papers|Papers]] section. | + | Ambient-Oriented programming is a paradigm geared towards mobile computing. Mobile hardware (such as cell phones) is mostly equipped with wireless networking, allowing it to collaborate with nearby devices |

+ | * It has built-in programming language constructs for objects to discover one another in the local ad hoc network. Peer-to-peer //service discovery// is built into the language. | ||
+ | * It features a dynamic OO kernel language built upon the principles of prototype-based programming (based on Scheme, Self and Smalltalk). The kernel language supports reflection using [[http:// | ||
+ | * The language syntax derives primarily from the 'curly brace' family of languages, but it mixes in the keyworded messaging syntax from Smalltalk as well. This, together with AmbientTalk' | ||
+ | * The current implementation of AmbientTalk embraces the JVM as a platform. It's easy for AmbientTalk programs to use Java libraries, and it's easy for Java objects to use !AmbientTalk as an embedded scripting language. This interaction is safe: even when AmbientTalk objects are " | ||
