In David Gelernter's original work, it's not just data. In Linda, it's possible to put Objects in, which are little executable (`eval` in Linda terms) which a processor can manipulate through whatever interface the tuple type exposes.
In David Gelernter's original work, it's not just data. In Linda, it's possible to put Objects in, which are little executable (`eval` in Linda terms) which a processor can manipulate through whatever interface the tuple type exposes.
Also, what's to stop another processor "finding" the Object before the intended recipient?
2. In TupleWorld, there's no concept of "the" intended recipient. The tuple's properties determine what kind of processor would match. If those properties happen to only match a single processor, you'd get that 1:1 mapping you want, but that's missing the point of tuple spaces.
Perhaps this is attempting to solve a problem I've not come across. While it sounds interesting, I'm not sure I see the benefit? (Probably me just being short-sighted).
