1 One can use "native classes" which is just a predownloaded library of optimized runtime routines which can be high performance compiled Java, C, C++, Fortran, HPF etc. modules invoked by interpreted or compiled Java

  • PDE primitives such as mesh generators,
  • optimization as needed in resource management or applications
