Actitrons and Perceptrons

Perceptrons● A Perceptron is an atomic unit of perception

● A Perceptron is received by a Sensor and is sent to a Channel (e.g., tech@yourcompany.com)

● The Perceptron captures the entire object (Email::Simple, RSS::FeedEntry etc) as a BLOB

● Perceptrons have standard META info

Sensors

● Sensors detect new Perceptrons: Goo::Sensor::Email

Goo::Sensor::ShellHistory

Goo::Sensor::ToDo

Goo::Sensor::FeedReader

Goo::Sensor::Chat

● Many more to come ...

Next Steps for The Goo ...

● More evolution required still need to find 'flow' - group flow++ too

Channelling

Goo::Perceptron::Diff – Sensors needed

● Planning to release it under Artistic 2.0 soon after Perl6 comes out – CHRISTMAS++!
