Abstract

In the paper "Functional programming for distributed systems with XC" we present XC, a programming language to develop the collective behaviour of homogeneous distributed systems while abstracting over concurrency, asynchronous execution, message loss, and device failures. The paper describes the design of XC, formalizes a core calculus for it, and shows that XC can effectively capture the logic of several distributed protocols and applications including gossiping, distributed summarization, information flows over self-healing communication structures, and self-organizing behaviours. Then, it discusses implementation, in a Scala and a C++ embedded domain-specific language (DSL), and provides evaluation through a case study in a smart city scenario, called SmartC. The reusable artifact described in this paper contains precisely those software projects: the Scala DSL, referred to as XC/Scala; the C++ DSL, referred to as XC/C++; and the SmartC implementation in both DSLs.
