Foil 37 What should you do as a Java Grande believer I?

From Java Grande: Is Java Useful in MPP/HPCC Environments? Frontiers 99 Conference Annapolis -- February 21-25 99. by Geoffrey C. Fox


Don't need to rewrite existing codes in Java!
  • Rather use Java freely at client and "gateway" tier
  • Wrap existing codes as CORBA or Java distributed objects
Conduct suitable experiments in using Java in complete Grande applications
Make certain your interests are represented in Java Grande Forum
Does this change research agenda? (different types of compilers, service-based architectures, re-use commodity technologies -- don't roll your own with federal funds ...)
Retrain your staff in Java Web and distributed object technologies
Put "High Performance Grande Forum compliant" Java support into your RFP's for hardware and software
