Description

Packages

one.eval	This package defines all classes for eval, a simple and extensible interpreter which evaluates s-expressions, as well as for a Scheme implementation within this interpreter.
one.fonda	This package provides a framework for regression testing and benchmarking.
one.fonda.java	This package contains vanilla Java benchmarks for comparison with one.world benchmarks.
one.gui	This package implements utilitiy functionality for building GUI-based applications in one.world.
one.math	This package defines a class for performing arbitrary-precision arithmetic on rational numbers.
one.net	This package implements support for the interaction between one.world and Internet protocols.
one.net.http	This package implements a HTTP server using the various one.world supplied features and primitives.
one.radio	This package implements the one.radio applications, including the emcee for managing users and their applications and chat for text and audio messaging.

one.toys	This package implements simple toy applications that illustrate various features of one.world.
one.util	This package defines various utility interfaces and classes.
one.world	This package defines the main class for one.world and the root shell.
one.world.binding	This package defines support for binding resources and keeping them bound through leases.
one.world.core	This package defines the core interfaces and classes for one.world.
one.world.data	This package defines tuples representing common data items.
one.world.env	This package defines the events used to interact with environments.
one.world.io	This package defines support for structured I/O.
one.world.rep	This package implements remote event passing (REP).
one.world.transaction	This package defines support for transactions.
one.world.util	This package defines utility interfaces and classes that are specific to one.world's data and execution models.

This is the documentation for one.world, a system architecture for pervasive computing. The Java packages for one.world are organized as follows:

• The core architecture against which applications are written is implemented by the collection of packages starting with one.world.
• Interaction between the outside world and one.world (through Internet protocols) is provided by the one.net package.
• Support for building GUI-based applications for one.world is provided by the one.gui package.
• Utility functionality that is useful beyond one.world is provided by the one.util package.
• The regression testing framework for one.world is provided by the one.fonda package. The one.fonda.java package implements vanilla Java benchmarks for comparison with one.world.
• Arbitrary-precison rational numbers are provided by the one.math package.
• eval, a simple and extensible s-expression interpreter which includes a fully compliant Scheme implementation, is provided by the one.eval package.
• Simple example applications running on top of one.world are implemented by the one.toys package.
• The one.radio chat application is implemented by the one.radio package.

A fully functional binary distribution of one.world only needs to include all packages starting with one.world as well as the one.net and one.util packages. We recommend that one.gui is also distributed as part of the core, but it need not be. All classes in the core architecture that implement regression tests and benchmarks can also be omitted from such a binary distribution; by convention, the names of classes implementing regression tests start with "Test" and the names of classes implementing benchmarks start with "Benchmark".
