Summary on Grant Application Form
The project will- design a novel typed process calculus for distributed concurrent objects. Objects will be explicitly located at dynamicall y generated sites, but may migrate between these sites. The typing system will be capability based, allowing resource access policies specified for both sites and objects.- provide a preliminary implementation of a distributed language based on this calculus. The implementation will use a virtual machine,sourced from the Mikado EU Global Computingproject, and will be sufficiently robust to allow the execution of experimental examples.
