Java Grande: Role of Java in Large Scale Computations

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at NPACI Summer Institute on Parallel Computing on August 21 98. Foils prepared August 15 98

We discuss the different ways Java can be used in a computational science programming environment
  • Graphical User Interface and client side interactive analysis systems including visualization
  • Server side Coarse Grain Coordination -- management and linkage of distributed objects
  • Coding of computational science programs in both parallel and sequential style
We describe the implied metaproblem and metacomputer architecture
We relate Java to CORBA and COM distributed object models
We describe Java Grande Forum
