Java for Scientific Computation: Prospects and Problems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fortran is still a very dominant language for scientific computations. However it lacks modern language features like strong typing, object orientation, and other design features of modern programming languages. Therefore, among scientists there is an increasing interest in object oriented languages like Java. In this paper, we will discuss a number of prospects and problems in Java for scientific computation.

متن کاملProspects for Scientific Computing in Polymorphic, Object-Oriented Style
Since the introduction of the Java programming language, there has been widespread interest in the use of Java for high performance scientific computing. One major impediment to such use is the performance penalty paid relative to Fortran. Although Java implementations have made great strides, they still fall short on programs that use the full power of Java’s object-oriented features. In this ...
