Abstract

Java is an architecture-independent, object-oriented language designed to facilitate code-sharing across the Internet in general, via the Web in particular. Also Java has much possibility as a multi-featured distributed computing language, and a powerful portability with architecture-independent execution. We examine the viability of Java as a high performance distributed computing language with three computation intensive problems with many usages. Each problem is tested in client-server model, and the performance comparisons in data size and number of clients are presented
