U.S.-France Cooperative Research (INRIA): Implementing a Cluster Version of Java with the PM2 Distributed and Multithreaded Run-Time System

这项为期三年的美法合作研究奖的获得者包括新罕布什尔大学的Philip J. Hatcher和Robert D. Russell，以及法国国家信息学和应用数学研究所（INRIA）位于法国里昂的平行信息实验室的Luc Bouge研究组。该提案涉及使用法国研究人员开发的多线程包PM2在集群计算机上实现并行程序的Java编程语言。这项工作将在Hyperion环境的上下文中执行，Hyperion环境由新罕布什尔大学开发，由Java字节码到c转换器和用于分布式执行Java线程的运行时库组成。该建议将促进对Java语言作为分布式内存并行计算机编程工具的理解。该奖项代表了美国方面向美国国家科学基金会和法国国家信息学和应用数学研究所（INRIA）提出的联合提案。NSF将支付美国调查员的旅费和生活费。INRIA将支持法国研究人员访问美国。

0084330HatcherThis three-year award for U.S.-France cooperative research involves Philip J. Hatcher and Robert D. Russell of the University of New Hampshire and Luc Bouge's research group at the French National Institute for Research in Informatics and Applied Mathematics'(INRIA) Laboratoire de l'Informatique du Parallelisme in Lyon, France. The proposal addresses implementation of the Java programming language for parallel programs on cluster computers using the multithreading package PM2 developed by the French researchers. The work will be performed in the context of the Hyperion environment, developed at the University of New Hampshire and comprised of a Java-bytecode-to-C translator and a run-time library for the distributed execution of Java threads. The proposal will advance understanding of Java language as a tool for programming distributed memory parallel computers. This award represents the US side of a joint proposal to NSF and the French National Institute for Research in Informatics and Applied Mathematics (INRIA). NSF will cover travel funds and living expenses for US Investigator. INRIA will support visits of French researchers to the US.
