What should you do as a Object Web and/or Java Grande believer?
Don’t need to rewrite existing codes in Java!
- Rather use Java freely at client and “gateway or middle” tier
- Wrap existing codes as CORBA or Java distributed objects accessed from a Portal
Develop XML standards for the data in your field
- e.g. earthquake science field is doing this for real time sensor data
Conduct suitable experiments in using Java in complete Grande applications
Make certain your interests are represented in Java Grande Forum
Does this change your research agenda? (different types of compilers, service-based architectures, re-use commodity technologies )
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
