Re: [akka-user] What would it take to make actors in another language/platform

2014-08-04 Thread Thomas Lockney
Implementing a fully distributed actor system on Arduino's is going to be challenging given the limited resources available. I would suggest looking more at an ARM-based platform, such as TI's Launchpad. But realistically, the Pi or a similar platform (Beagleboard, Cubieboard, etc.) might be an
