We describe 3 major areas where Java (and other Web Technologies) can have significant impact
|
6 |
1) Java can be used to build user Interfaces and here we describe the Virtual Programming Laboratory VPL
|
7 |
2) Java can support coarse grain integration and metacomputing
-
Here we describe both WebFlow (AVS on the web) and Tango (a Java Collaboratory)
-
Both Computational Steering and "Forces Modelling" seem naturally implemented with this technology
|

3) Java as a traditional compiled language for computational kernels
-
Integration of Interpreted and Compiled Environments
-
The latter discussion included details on parallel Java
