[starlogo-users] Starlogo: first-generation nanorobot programming language?

[Costello, Roger L.]

Hi Folks,
 
Lately, I have been thinking a bit about nanotechnology, and the notion
of a bunch of nanorobots that collectively work to solve a problem.
Those nanorobots will need to be programmed.
 
It occurs to me that the concepts that are employed in Starlogo to get
a bunch of "turtles" to collectively work to solve a problem will be
the same concepts that are used to program nanorobots.  Thus, would it
not be fair to say that Starlogo is a first-generation nanorobot
language?  And those people who are developing skills "now" to program
Starlogo are positioning themselves for the "future" to program
nanorobots.  Do you agree?  Or, am I stretching it a bit?  What do you
think?  /Roger
