%X The high\-performance computing community has developed
   numerous Java packages that support parallel and distributed
   computing. Most of these packages are designed for the
   typical parallel message passing and shared memory
   architectural paradigms. This paper presents the results of
   a recent study that included a web search for such packages,
   describes the paradigms implemented in them, and evaluates
   their performance on a parallel, 4\-processor SMP machine
   using three benchmark programs that represent a mix of
   typical parallel applications, chosen from The Java Grande
   Benchmark Suite. A brief description of each package and a
   discussion its ease of installation and use are also
   provided.
