About Hume

Hume was developed in the early 2000s as a research project aimed at creating a programming language for real-time embedded systems. It combined functional programming with finite state automata to ensure predictable performance and resource usage. The language was designed to address the needs of safety-critical applications, providing a balance between expressiveness and formal verifiability.

Hume's strengths include predictable performance, resource control, and suitability for safety-critical systems. Its weaknesses are limited general-purpose applicability and a smaller user community. Competitors include Ada, Erlang, and Real-Time Java, which also target real-time and embedded systems.
