Cω is a research programming language. It is pronounced “c” followed by ” -mg, -mg”. It can be written (and searched for) as Cw or the “Comega language”.
Cω is a strongly typed, data oriented programming language that bridges the gap between between semi-structured hierarchical data (XML), relational data (SQL), and the .NET Common Type System (CTS). In Cω, the seemingly different worlds of XML, SQL and CTS are bridged and connected through generalization, not specialization.
Besides data integration, Cω extends the C# programming language with new asynchronous concurrency abstractions, based on the join calculus. The language presents a simple and powerful model of concurrency which is applicable both to multithreaded applications running on a single machine and to the orchestration of asynchronous, event-based applications communicating over a wide area network.
