In particular it is natural for PCRC to examine its software indrastructure and see how it should be structured/changed to support HPJava.

http://www.npac.syr.edu/users/gcf/hpjava3.html is not a proposal or plan.
-
Rather it is an often conflicting(!) study of issues that emerge when you place Java and HPCC next to each other.
-
Is data Parallelism useful in Java is Controversial!
|
More thoughtfully, we study Programming Model suggested by HPJava
|
What is Role of Optimizing Compilers in (HP)Java?
-
What are performance issues -- can we separate out current implementations from intrinsic issues.
|
There are a large number of important experiments in the community

Other topics include role of CORBA, Security, Model for communication in Java
