This paper presents a small language for distributed computation with agent mobility——Scope language. The language is different from most existing work on distributed and mobile computation, which usually take some variants of π-calculus as their basis. The core of Scope language is a specially designed λ-like calculus with resources. It enables Scope language to directly model memory-like resources, instead of indirectly using process/channel as in π-calculus. Furthermore, Scope language gives a novel treatment to the notion of location, which is called Scope here. Scope and memory-like resources combined make Scope language complementary to most other work, and provide an alternative approach to modeling distributed and mobile systems, which feature the simplicity of implementation and the affinity with the programming model inherent in realistic language such as Obliq and Telescript.
