The talk starts with an overview of NPAC and a description of our CPSWT CDROM with Chinese translation of Computational Science courseware
|
2 |
We then describe 3 major areas where Java (and other Web Technologies) can have significant impact
|
3 |
1) Java can be used to build user Interfaces and here we describe the Virtual Programming Laboratory VPL
|
4 |
2) Java can support coarse grain integration and metacomputing
-
Here we describe both WebFlow (AVS on the web) and Tango (a Java Collaboratory)
-
Both Computational Steering and "Forces Modelling" seem naturally implemented with this technology
|
5 |
3) Java as a traditional compiled language for computational kernels
-
The latter discussion included details on parallel Java
|

We show how this allows one to build integrated Interpreted and Compiled Environments
