“…Such service objects are special as they may be referred to by objects on other devices. Because of the inherent concurrency to which such service objects are exposed, we equip them with a model of concurrency and distribution which is heavily inspired by the actor model of computation [1] and its incarnation in stateful active objects in languages such as ABCL/1 [25]. We model service objects as stateful actors.…”

A significant body of research in ubiquitous computing deals with mobile networks, i.e. networks of mobile devices interconnected by wireless communication links. Due to the very nature of such mobile networks, addressing and communicating with remote objects is significantly more difficult than in their fixed counterparts. This paper reconsiders the remote object reference concept -one of the most fundamental programming abstractions of distributed programming languages -in the context of mobile networks. We describe four desirable characteristics of remote references in mobile networks, show how existing remote object references fail to exhibit them, and subsequently propose ambient references: remote object references designed for mobile networks.

The ObjVProlog-D programming language extends logic programming with concepts of object-oriented and distributed programming, providing a semantically complete and coherent model inspired by ObjV-Lisp where metaclasses are treated as first-class entities. It is based on concurrent logic objects interacting through remote logic method calls. It preserves the Prolog don't know nondeterminism by implementing distributed backtracking to search for all solutions to goals. It uses asynchronous messages for communication and future logic variables for synchronization. Furthermore, its metaclass and reflexive features improve significantly the use of widespread metaprogramming techniques. ObjVProlog-D is implemented in Quintus Prolog and distributcd applications have run on a network of workstations.

“…A good approximation of this requirement is that the basic message mechanism is asynchronous and unilcrreral or that it has a send/no-wait semantics [28]. When the basic message mechanism has a send/wait semantics the programmers must take care to avoid deadlocks.…”

In this paper we present the result of a comparative analysis of different programming languages and systems that claim the label object-oriented. In the second section the concepts of persistence, concurrency, composition, perspective, distribtuwn, location and mdility, communication, encapsulation, anronomy, and mzaatwn are presented as characteristics of physical objects. Crclssifrcations are used by people to organize their knowledge of physical objects. In the third section, we discuss the appearance of the concepts in programming languages and illustrate them through the difFerent investigated languages. In the last section we give a survey of a conceptual framework that gives the physical world metaphor its due and that will be supported in the TIE(Take It Easy)-system. * ECOOP'87 held in Paris, June 15-17.1987. 2 CH2S48-6/88/oooO/0002$01.00 0 1988 IEEE
