Foil 21 Motivation of HPJava@NPAC - I A high performance Java Framework

From Multidisciplinary Applications MAPINT97 Workshop -- 16-18 June 97. by Geoffrey C. Fox *

1 HPCC is a small field with limited resources for a very hard problem and must leverage as much software as possible
2 The Web provides an excellent pervasive user interface with Java Applets and WebWindows
3 The Web provides a potentially excellent high performance object oriented language (Java) for scientific and engineering computation
4 The Web provides a rich but modest performance distributed computing environment based on either Web Servers or Clients
  • We will choose to use servers as higher functionality although currently less broadly deployed
