Sphactor: Actor Model Concurrency for Creatives


Description

We propose a combined visual and text-based programming environment based on the actor model suitable for novice to expert programmers. This model encompasses simple communicating entities which easily scale from utilizing threads inside the computer to massive distributed computer systems. To design our proposed environment we classify different levels of programming users encounter when dealing with technologies in creative scenarios. We use this classification system as a foundation to design our proposed environment to support (novice) users on their way to a next level. This framework not only intends to support modern computing power through a concurrent programming paradigm, but is also intended to let users interact with it on the different classification levels.
