We will "just" add high performance/scientific computing capabilities to this commodity distributed object web infrastructure
-
Respecting architecture of the object web, should allow us to naturally use improved software as it produced
-
The alternative strategy starts with HPCC technologies (such as MPI,HPF) and adds links to commodity world. This approach does not easily track evolution of commodity systems and so has large maintenance costs

|
Java can be critical here as not likely to be many Fortran programmers in the future and C++ has not been terribly successful in HPCC
