From Distributed Simulation (DIS,HLA) HPCC and the Object Web Visit to ARL Aberdeen -- June 5-6 97. by Wojtek Furmanski
1 Java is many things:
  • a new object-oriented language (simpler than C++),
  • a programming language for the Internet (integrates networking, multithreading and interactive media processing),
  • mobile code platform (JavaVM available on all major platforms),
  • architecture-neutral distribution format (via portable bytecodes),
  • new embeddable operating system (JavaOS to be put on JavaChips),
  • enabler for new Internet programming paradigms (such as ObjectWeb discussed here).
