Java Message Passing Interface

The emergence of World Wide Web and Java technologies has altered the view of the Internet. It provides an open standard interface among the heterogeneous computers on the Internet. To exploit the enormous computational resources on the Internet, we have developed a Java-based parallel programming environment called Java Message Passing Interface (JMPI). It runs on different machines regardless of their computer architecture or operating systems. It uses arbitrary machines on the Internet as computation nodes, and provides an application programming interface which follows the semantic of Message Passing Interface standard. In this paper, we present the overview of the infrastructure of this parallel programming environment
