Abstract

Pangaea is a system that can distribute centralized Java programs, based on static source code analysis and using arbitrary distribution middleware as a back-end. As Pangaea handles the entire distribution aspect transparently and automatically, it helps to reduce the complexity of parallel programming, and also shows how static analysis can be used to optimize distribution polices in ways that would be difficult for programmers to find, and impossible to detect dynamically by the run-time system.
