A coordination medium to be used to exchange pieces of information and coordinate with other entities, implemented to be used with JsonTuples and JsonTemplates.

A "tuple space", in general, is what is called a coordination medium. It is a way to coordinate the entities that participate in its use. It is a way to exchange information, more specifically tuples and with this implementation JsonTuples, and to coordinate the different actions of the entities. For a "tuple space", the coordination happens with the same operations that let to write and to read into the space. The basic operations, "in" and "rd", have a suspensive semantic, which means that their completion suspends until a tuple able to complete them is found in the space. In this way, similarly to the "future" data structure, the execution can be paused until the result is ready. Matching a tuple means to have a template to be used by the operation for matching, which in this implementation is a JsonTemplate.

Companion object to the JsonTupleSpace trait, containing its factory method.
