Dataflow computation models enable simpler and more efficient management of the memory hierarchy a key barrier to the performance of many parallel programs. This paper describes a dataflow language based on Java. Use of the dataflow model enables a programmer to generate parallel programs without explicit directions for message passing, work allocation and synchronisation. A small handful of ad...

Recently Java programming environment has become so popular. Java programming language is a language that is designed to be portable enough to be executed in wide range of computers ranging from cell phones to supercomputers. Computer programs written in Java are compiled into Java Byte code instructions that are suitable for execution by a Java Virtual Machine implementation. Java virtual Mach...

Jacl, Java Command Language, is a version of the Tcl [1] scripting language for the Java [2] environment. Jacl is designed to be a universal scripting language for Java: the Jacl interpreter is written completely in Java and can run on any Java Virtual Machine. Jacl can be used to create Web content or to control Java applications. This paper explains the need for Jacl as a scripting language f...

Java for embedded devices is today synonym of “embeddable pseudo-Java”. Embedded flavors of Java introduce incompatibilities against the standard edition and break its portability rule. In this paper, we introduce a way to embed applications written for Java 2 Standard Edition. The applications are pre-deployed into a virtual Java execution environment, which is analyzed in order to tailor the ...

Design by Contract is a valuable design method for trusted software components. Eiffel shows how to provide appropriate language support for it. However, no such concepts currently exist in Java. Full integration of them into Java may help to improve and guarantee the quality of Java classes. We briefly compare several approaches to extend Java in this way and present our model and a compiler t...

Java is a powerful object oriented programming language that dominates many other programming languages for more than a decade. It is well designed and available as many executable technologies for software development such as Java Swing, Java Beans, Java Applets, Java Web Start, Java Database Connectivity (JDBC), Java Server Pages (JSP) and Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE). Beyond its usage in...
