Foil 56 Approachs to Parallel Java - High Level - I

From The Use of Web Technologies (at NPAC) in HPCC Collaboration and Education Trip to Digital Corporation in New Hampshire -- May 8 97. by Geoffrey C. Fox *

Parallel C++ approach (Standard Template Libraries etc.) does not work
  • Cannot overload operators
Could copy HPF directive approach but as this requires major compiler development, this does not seem appropriate in near future
  • Approachs that need simple preprocessor are probably acceptable
  • parallel Fortran 77 approach is easier with identification of loop level parallelism
In particular can use this with Java threads running on SMP as target i.e. use Java runtime to get parallelism automatically if we spawn appropriate threads
This work can be done on .class (Bytecode) or .java (Java language) files
