Simple Isolation for an Actor Abstract Machine
Abstract
The actor model is an old but compelling concurrent programming model in this age of multicore architectures and distributed services. In this paper we study an as yet unexplored region of the actor design space in the context of concurrent object-oriented programming. Specifically, we show that a purely run-time, annotation-free approach to actor state isolation with reference passing of arbitrary object graphs is perfectly viable. In addition, we show, via a formal proof using the Coq proof assistant, that our approach indeed enforces actor isolation.
