Members of the Persistence and Distribution group in the Department of
Computing Science at Glasgow University and the Forest group at Sun
Microsystems Laboratories in Mountain View are collaborating in the
development of orthogonal persistence for Java(tm). A preliminary
version of their experimental platform is now available under licence
to academic research groups for evaluation and research purposes.
Further details can be found at
http://www.sunlabs.com/research/forest/opj.main.html.
Feedback is welcomed.
It must be emphasised that this is an experimental platform built for
research purposes and that there is no commitment to support for users
of this software nor any kind of warranty regarding its quality. The
present version is based on the Sun Microsystems(tm) JDK(tm) 1.0.2. A
version based on JDK 1.1 will be available soon.
A number of papers and other descriptions of the work can be found at
the following web sites: http://www.sunlabs.com/research/forest
and http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/pjava. You may also be interested in
details of a forthcoming workshop on Persistence and Java, PJW2 (see
http://www.sunlabs.com/research/forest/pjw2).
