"Minimart: Organizing Squabbling Actors"
@p*{Actors are a great model for managing concurrency and communication
within programs. The Minimart #lang adds Actors to Racket; but Actors
alone are not enough. Programmers using Actors are often left to solve
issues such as event broadcasting, service naming and discovery, and
even crash-handling and exit signalling, on their own.
Minimart makes solutions to these problems part of the language
itself. I'll show how Minimart uses publish/subscribe programming and
"routing events" to manage and organize whole groups of Actors at a
time.}
@p*{Tony Garnock-Jones is a PhD candidate at Northeastern University's
Programming Research Laboratory, working on applying lessons from
distributed systems to programming language design.})
