Abstract

Indus is a new object oriented programming language for Ubiquitous computing. The Indus programming language enables implementation of software agents that have the ability to cooperatively execute tasks by coordinating with other agents and composing components using connectors. The Indus programming model tightly integrates a set of run time libraries that automates the management of distributed agents and components across a variety of platforms and networks. Indus also differentiates itself from other general purpose, object oriented programming languages by being able to generate code on a variety of 8/16/32/64 bit platforms, thus making it ideal as a language for implementing pervasive applications.
