Authors interested in contributing to the workshop are invited to submit manuscripts that report new technologies and practical experiences related to the use of Java for high-performance computing. Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:

• Parallel and distributed computing with Java
• Numerical computing in Java
• Compilation and optimization techniques for Java
• Computationally intensive applications developed in Java
• Use of Java in database and other server-oriented applications
• Use of Java in embedded systems
• Java frameworks and libraries for high-performance computing
• Tools and techniques for developing high-performance applications in Java
• Object-oriented techniques for scientific computing

Accepted papers will be published in a technical report of the workshop. Authors are welcome to submit papers on work that has been submitted elsewhere. The co-chairs are looking into pursuing journal publication of submitted papers of exceptional quality.

Authors should submit an extended abstract absolutely not to exceed 3000 words (approximately 6 pages) by the deadline of 5/10. Submissions will be reviewed on the basis of relevance, originality, soundness, and clarity. Accepted papers will be presented at the conference and published in the Workshop Proceedings. Final versions of the papers for publication are due on 5/29.

Only electronic submission will be accepted. Please e-mail a Postscript or PDF copy of your submission to the Workshop Co-Chair Sam Midkiff at smidkiff@us.ibm.com. Papers should be in letter format, and not A4 format, since the latter makes it difficult for us to print your submission. Any questions about submissions should be mailed to Sam Midkiff.
