Java SE To Be Supported For Intel Itanium 2-Based Systems
The Itanium Solutions Alliance has commended Sun Microsystems and Intel Corporation, a Founding Sponsor of the Itanium Solutions Alliance, on their cooperation to deliver Sun’s Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE) for Itanium 2-based solutions. Intel is porting and optimizing the code, and support is expected to be included as part of a standard update for Java SE 6 available from Sun next year.
The availability of this support will ensure the write once, run anywhere philosophy, which helped make the Java Platform a widely-used development environment, continues to extend to developers working on Itanium-based systems. This support for Intel Itanium architecture is expected to increase the availability of Java-based software and broaden solutions choices for end users. The announcement came during an Intel keynote at JavaOneSM in San Francisco, Calif. by Renee J. James
