Developed in the 1980s at the Ericsson Computer Science Laboratory to address a then-unfulfilled need for telecommunications programming, it has evolved as a general purpose concurrency-oriented functional programming language suited for fault-tolerant, error recovery, distributed, soft real-time systems since then. It supports hot swapping, so that code can be changed without stopping a system
