Abstract

In this paper we sketch out a proposed infrastructure for a reference implementation for message passing in Java (MPJ), the Java Grande Forum’s MPI-like message-passing API [1,2]. The proposal relies heavily on RMI and Jini for finding computational resources, creating slave processes, and handling failures. User-level communication is implemented efficiently directly on top of Java sockets.
