I have a machine with 8 cores and I have been getting amazing results with the parallel computation. LaunchKernels[] gives me 4 kernels and many of my problems actually are probably running something like four times as fast. This is really awesome! But I am wondering if I can get Java to connect to all of these kernels. I have some java code that I invoke from the mathematica user interface. This program will often run overnight or even for more than a day. I figured if Java will talk to all these kernels then I could divide the problem and it would run much faster. (Conceptually the problem splits up nicely.) Does anyone know how to do this? -Timothy
