Farhad Arbab worked in different countries, in various different fields, on many different subjects, a border-crossing experience which led to scientific explorations in various directions.
Over the years, the scope of Farhad’s research at CWI became wider still, including Software Composition, Service Oriented Computing, Component-based Software, Concurrency Theory, Coordination Models and Languages, Parallel and Distributed Computing, Visual Programming Environments, Constraints, Logic and Object-Oriented Programming. The foundational contributions of Farhad to the field of Coordination Models and Languages should be highlighted. His insight that it is all about exeogeneous coordination gave rise to the IWIM model for coordination of concurrent activities which emphasized the basic separation of concerns between computation and coordination. This line of research culminated in the striking elegance and beauty of Reo: an exogenous coordination model whose formal semantics is based on a calculus of channel composition.
