Java has provided a lot of support to dynamic web content through applets, network class loading, bytecode verification, security, and multi-platform compatibility. Moreover, Java is a good framework for distributed Internet programming because of its standardized representation of objects and serialization support. Some of the important libraries that provide support for Internet computing are: java.rmi for remote method invocation, java.reflection for run-time introspection, java.io for serialization, and java.net for sockets, datagrams, and URLs.
SALSA (Simple Actor Language, System and Architecture) is an actor-oriented programming language designed and implemented to introduce the benefits of the actor model while keeping the advantages of object-oriented programming. Abstractions include active objects, asynchronous message passing, universal naming, migration, and advanced coordination constructs for concurrency. SALSA is pre-processed into Java and hence preserves many of Java's useful object oriented concepts- mainly, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism. SALSA abstractions enable the development of dynamically reconfigurable applications. A SALSA program consists of universal actors that can ne migrated to distributed nodes at run-time.
