Minor Specialization:

Groovy is a dynamic language that runs on top of the JVM and is compatible with existing Java programs. It is an official Java standard (JSR 241). It is an object-oriented language with Java-like syntax, yet offers many of the advantages of dynamic languages like Python, Ruby and Perl. O&B has used Groovy in internal projects.

RUBY / RUBY ON RAILS. Ruby is a dynamic, reflective, general purpose object-oriented programming language. Ruby supports multiple programming paradigms, including functional, object oriented, imperative and reflection. Ruby on Rails (RoR) is a free web application framework designed to make web development faster, simpler and more efficient. It has gained a large amount of popularity in the last few years and a large number new web applications are built on ROR.

The Boost C++ Libraries are a collection of peer-reviewed, open source libraries that extend the functionality of C++. Most of the libraries are licensed under the Boost Software License, designed to allow Boost to be used with both open and closed source projects. Many of Boost's founders are on the C++ standard committee and several Boost libraries have been accepted for incorporation into the Technical Report 1 of C++0x. O&B currently has a development project for a high-performance messaging platform built on Boost I/O and Boost Spirit.

Erlang is a general-purpose concurrent programming language and runtime system. The sequential subset of Erlang is a functional language, with strict evaluation, single assignment and dynamic typing. For concurrency it follows the Actor model. It was designed by Ericsson to support distributed, fault-tolerant, soft-real-time and non-stop applications. It supports hot swapping so code can be changed without stopping a system. Erlang was originally a proprietary language within Ericsson, but was released as open source in 1998. O&B plans to use Erlang to develop a high-performance, real-time financial application.

Scala (Scalable Language) is a multi-paradigm programming language designed to integrate features of object-oriented programming and functional programming. Scala runs on the Java Platform and is compatible with existing Java programs. O&B is currently exploring it for use in succeeding projects.

Python is an open source object-oriented language that is very popular in the open source community, and is the application language of choice for many major companies including Google. O&B's CTO is the country's top expert in the Python language and is the original author of the open source project Squishdot.
