DEMON (programming language)

DEMON is a programming language developed in the 1970s, primarily for managing and controlling distributed systems. It stands out by allowing programmers to define "demons"—programs that run automatically in response to specific events or conditions, similar to background processes. DEMON is designed to handle tasks such as resource management and task scheduling, making it useful for complex systems like networks and real-time applications. Its unique event-driven approach enables efficient and dynamic interactions among various components in a system, enhancing overall functionality and responsiveness.
