Thanks for the response Raul, that makes sense. What about GPGPUs? Has there been any thought about leveraging these powerful devices? Each year they are coming out with lower costs and more power. Nvidia's Tesla, for example, is at the moment controlled with FORTRAN and C/C++, I know J is C

Having a multi-threaded manager would also work. One way would be building a C# application which creates multiple-threads and executes J.EXE on each thread. One downside data sharing though. Also results have to consolidated by the C# application or a final J execution which consolidates the

The example at http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/JDB/ClientServer worked fine for J6.02 (32bit) on Windows XP and Vista as long as the client program and server program are both executed on the same machine. Can this example execute on two machines, one being the client, the other the server? I
