Active Oberon is a general purpose programming language developed during 1996-1998 by the group around Niklaus Wirth and Jürg Gutknecht at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zürich. It is an extension of the programming language Oberon. The extensions aim at implementing active objects as expressions for parallelism. Compared to its predecessors, Oberon and Oberon-2, Active Oberon adds objects, system-guarded assertions, preemptive priority scheduling and a changed syntax for methods. Objects may be active, which means that they may be threads or processes. As it is tradition in the Oberon world, the Active Oberon language compiler is implemented in Active Oberon. The operating system named Active Object System (AOS) in 2002, then due to trademark issues, renamed Bluebottle in 2005, and then renamed A2 in 2008, especially the kernel, synchronizes and coordinates different active objects.
