Kilim: Fast, lightweight, cheap message passing in Java.
Google Tech Talks
June, 11 2008
ABSTRACT
Kilim: Fast, lightweight, cheap message passing in Java.
A million actors, 3x faster than Erlang.
The message passing (MP) paradigm is often seen as a superior alternative to the typical mix of idioms in concurrent (shared-memory, locks) and distributed programming (CORBA/RMI). MP eliminates worries endemic to the shared-memory mindset: lock ordering, failure-coupling, low-level data races and memory models. It simplifies synchronization between data and control planes (no lost signals or updates), and unifies APIs for local and remote process interaction.
Curiously however, there are no efficient frameworks for intra-process message-passing, except for Erlang. This talk describes a Java framework called "Kilim" to fix this state of affairs. Kilim provides:
1. Extremely lightweight user-level threads (actors) with automatic stack management, obtained via CPS transformation.
2. A simple type system that ensures actor isolation by controlling pointer aliasing in messages at compile time, and by ensuring linear ownership of mutable message objects. This permits safe, zero-copy communication.
3. A compact run-time library containing typed mailboxes (with optional flow control), user-definable scheduling and python style generators.
Kilim is portable; one of our explicit goals was to not require changes to the Java language syntax or to the JVM.
Kilim scales comfortably to handle hundreds of thousands of actors and messages on modest hardware. It is fast as well -- task-switching is 1000x faster than Java threads and 60x faster than other lightweight tasking frameworks, and message-passing is 3x faster than Erlang (currently the gold standard for concurrency-oriented programming).
Speaker: Sriram Srinivasan
Sriram Srinivasan has 19 years of experience delivering a variety of systems spanning wireless sensors, messaging systems, middleware (he was a principal engineer of the Weblogic Application server) and large-scale applications such as cargo planning systems and network management systems.
He is currently on leave from industry, pursuing a PhD at the University of Cambridge. He is interested in mixing programming languages, concurrenct & distributed systems and modal logics.

♫ Soundtrack - Lord of the Rings - The Passing of the Elves
with lyric (and background animation ;-)
ost by howard shore
------------------------
lyric and information from:
www.geocities.com/magpie930/
------------------------
"passing of the elves" of the Complete Recordings - The Fellowship of the Ring; with lyric in Sindarin (an Elven language)
The song is of a scene of the special extended edition and doesn't appear in the cinema-version of lord of the rings.
(Frodo and Sam are watching wood-elves who are leaving middle-earth, while they singing this song)
watch it here:
http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=Kzx2KQ7VM5E
The song contains parts of a poem, written by Tolkien.
English translation:
Snow White! Snow White! O Lady clear!
O Queen beyond the Western Seas! O Light to us that wander there Amid the world of woven trees! Gilthoniel! O Elbereth! Clear are thy eyes and bright is breath, Snow-white! Snow-white! We sing to thee In a far land beyond the Sea! O Stars that in the Sunless Year With shining hand by thee were sown, In windy fields now bright and clear We see your silver blossom blown! O Elbereth Gilthoniel! We still remember, we who dwell In this far land beneath the trees, Thy starlight on the Western Seas.
