Distributed Haskell components
==============================

Implement support for distributed SCA/Tuscany components written in the Haskell 
functional programming language.

The project will give students an opportunity to innovate with programming 
models and different types of program composition: assembly of cooperating 
components in a distributed SCA composite, and (Haskell) function composition.

Using Haskell to implement SCA components should be particularly interesting as 
the Haskell functional programming model (idempotent functions, precisely 
defined inputs, outputs, and dependencies, no or precisely defined side 
effects) fits well the distributed SOA-type service / operation pattern.

Going one step further, the project could also use Haskell's lazy evaluation to 
delay/minimize invocations of remote components in a network for example, or 
show how easy it is to run distributed map/reduce functions using SCA Haskell 
components.

The project could integrate Haskell with the Tuscany SCA Java-based or SCA 
C++-based runtimes, depending on the student preference.
