- | * **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. | + | [[http:// |
- | * **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. | + | |

- | * The [[http:// | + | Ambient-Oriented programming is a programming paradigm whose properties are derived from the characteristics of hardware platforms for mobile computing. Mobile hardware devices are often provided with wireless networks facilities, allowing them to engage in collaboration with nearby devices in their environment. However, the autonomous nature of these devices as well as the volatile connections over their wireless infrastructure has its repercussions |

+ | * It features a functional, object-oriented kernel language built upon the principles of prototype-based programming (based on Scheme, Self and Smalltalk). The kernel language is reflective and hence extensible from within the language itself. | ||

+ | "What does a high-level language accomplish? It frees a program from much of its accidental complexity. An abstract program consists of conceptual constructs: operations, data types, sequences, and communication. The concrete machine program is concerned with bits, registers, conditions, branches, channels, disks, and such. To the extent that the high-level language embodies the constructs one wants in the abstract program and avoids all lower ones, it eliminates a whole level of complexity that was never inherent in the program at all." | ||
