This paper is very relevant to my attempts to characterise what I call the Scott-Strachey school of computer science; cf. Right On!.

Web Developer's Virtual Library: "To begin a discussion of classes, I think we should look back to the 'C' language.

Most of the libraries of the scripting languages are written in C. Therefore, I could argue that modern languages are an abstraction of C in the same way that C is an abstraction of assembler."

Gearman enables a new level of software abstraction. With this lightweight infrastructure you can to outsource work to better-suited computers, run tasks in parallel, and combine code written in different computer languages.
