Hermes is a language for distributed programming that was developed at IBM's Thomas J. Watson Research Center from 1986 through 1992. Hermes' primary features included:〔"Hermes Language Experiences". Willard Korfhage and Arthur P. Goldberg. Software — Practice and Experience, Vol. 25(4), 389–402 (April 1995). ()〕 * Language support of processes and interprocess communication. * Compile-time verification that operations use initialized data. * Representation-independent data aggregates called tables. * Lack of pointers. The compile-time checking of data initialization, called "typestate analysis", is an early precedent for the definite assignment analysis performed by Java, Cyclone and C#. Hermes and its predecessor, NIL, appear to have been the earliest programming languages supporting this form of initialization checking. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hermes (programming language)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
