Collective Communications for Scalable Programming

Abstract. HPJava is an environment for scientific and parallel programming using Java. It is based on an extended version of the Java language. One feature that HPJava adds to Java is a multi-dimensional array, or multiarray, with properties similar to the arrays of Fortran. We are using Adlib as our high-level collective communication library. Adlib was originally developed using C++ by the Parallel Compiler Runtime Consortium (PCRC). Many functionalities of this high-level communication library is following its predecessor. However, many design issues are reconsidered and re-implemented according to Java environment. Detailed functionalities and implementation issues of this collective library will be described
