What is Special Issue on Java on Clusters about?
The focus of this issue is the meeting of two technologies: Java and cluster computing. Java technology is maturing and is becoming the technology of choice in designing server middleware and enterprise applications. The phenomenal growth of the Internet and the demand for e-commerce and business over the Web has encumbered traditional serverÂdata resources and infrastructures. Moreover, the growing demands for reliable, highly available, and scalable solutions put forward by e-commerce make the use of clusters almost a mandatory requirement in the new e-commerce setup. The term single system image (SSI ) indicates that a given set of machines (a cluster) gives the impression of a single machine. The desired situation is that an application written for one machine executes on a cluster of n machines that presents a SSI, without modifications, yielding an n-fold increase of its throughput (or runs n times faster). It would be best if such a system also were highly available. Namely, it should continue to operate even when one of the n machines (cluster node) failed. The terms SSI and cluster are used freely by various computer vendors to help market their product. We refer the reade
