Lemick is a
programming language with BASIC syntax, it's a typed and a compiled
language, its source is compiled into a platform-independent virtual
machine assembler that is later transformed into a platform-dependent
representation by the just-in-time compiler. Lemick supports concurrent
and distributed programming (multi-threading and distributed multi-threading).
Rendezvous are used for message passing; replicas and ultra-weak
consistency model implement distributed shared memory simulation.
Extension of exception handling mechanism, including distributed
version is being developed now. Lemick favors mixed procedural and
object-oriented programming style.
