Open Channel Publishing Ltd., 2013 © 2013 The authors and Open Channel Publishing Ltd. All rights reserved. Life of occam-Pi Peter H. WELCH School of Computing, University of Kent, UK [email protected] Abstract. This paper considers some questions prompted by a brief review of the history of computing. Why is programming so hard? Why is concurrency considered an “advanced” subject? What’s the matter with Objects? Where did all the Maths go? In searching for answers, the paper looks at some concerns over fundamental ideas within object orientation (as represented by modern programming languages), before focussing on the concurrency model of communicating processes and its particular expression in the occam family of languages. In that focus, it looks at the history of occam, its underlying philosophy (Ockham’s Razor), its semantic foundation on Hoare’s CSP, its principles of process oriented design and its development over almost three decades into occam-π (which blends in the concurrency dynamics of Milner’s π-calculus). Also presented will be an urgent need for rationalisation – occam-π is an experiment that has demonstrated significant results, but now needs time to be spent on careful review and implementing the conclusions of that review. Finally, the future is considered. In particular, is there a future? Keywords. process, object, local reasoning, global reasoning, occam-pi, concurrency, compositionality, verification, multicore, efficiency, scalability, safety, simplicity Introduction Let’s try a few questions to which the answer might be: “occam, obviously”.

  • Rmox: a Raw-Metal Occam Experiment
    Communicating Process Architectures – 2003 269 Jan F. Broenink and Gerald H. Hilderink (Eds.) IOS Press, 2003 RMoX: A Raw-Metal occam Experiment Fred BARNES†, Christian JACOBSEN† and Brian VINTER‡ † Computing Laboratory, University of Kent, Canterbury, Kent, CT2 7NF, England. {frmb2,clj3}@kent.ac.uk ‡ Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, University of Southern Denmark, Odense, Denmark. [email protected] Abstract. Operating-systems are the core software component of many modern com- puter systems, ranging from small specialised embedded systems through to large distributed operating-systems. This paper presents RMoX: a highly concurrent CSP- based operating-system written in occam. The motivation for this stems from the overwhelming need for reliable, secure and scalable operating-systems. The major- ity of operating-systems are written in C, a language that easily offers the level of flexibility required (for example, interfacing with assembly routines). C compilers, however, provide little or no mechanism to guard against race-hazard and aliasing er- rors, that can lead to catastrophic run-time failure (as well as to more subtle errors, such as security loop-holes). The RMoX operating-system presents a novel approach to operating-system design (although this is not the first CSP-based operating-system). Concurrency is utilised at all levels, resulting in a system design that is well defined, easily understood and scalable. The implementation, using the KRoC extended oc- cam, provides guarantees of freedom from race-hazard and aliasing errors, and makes extensive use of the recently added support for dynamic process creation and channel mobility. Whilst targeted at mainstream computing, the ideas and methods presented are equally applicable for small-scale embedded systems — where advantage can be made of the lightweight nature of RMoX (providing fast interrupt responses, for ex- ample).

    Boldrin & Levine: Against Intellectual Monopoly, Chapter 1 Chapter 1: Introduction In late 1764, while repairing a small Newcomen steam engine, the idea of allowing steam to expand and condense in separate containers sprang into the mind of James Watt. He spent the next few months in unceasing labor building a model of the new engine. In 1768, after a series of improvements and substantial borrowing, he applied for a patent on the idea. August found Watt in London about the patent and he spent another six months working hard to obtain it. The patent was finally awarded in January of the following year. Nothing much happened by way of production until 1775. Then, with a major effort supported by his business partner, the rich industrialist Matthew Boulton, Watt secured an Act of Parliament extending his patent until the year 1800. The great statesman Edmund Burke spoke eloquently in Parliament in the name of economic freedom and against the creation of unnecessary monopoly – but to no avail. The connections of Watt’s partner Boulton were too solid to be defeated by simple principle. Once Watt’s patents were secured and production started, a substantial portion of his energy was devoted to fending off rival inventors. In 1782, Watt secured an additional patent, made “necessary in consequence of ... having been so unfairly anticipated, by [Matthew] Wasborough in the crank motion.” More dramatically, in the 1790s, when the superior Hornblower engine was put into production, Boulton and Watt went after him with the full force of the legal system. During the period of Watt’s patents the U.K.
