The creators of Java originally aimed the language for business and web applications and not for science or engineering uses. Of course, engineers and scientists also write and use many of the same types of applications as in business such as accessing databases and web page demonstrations.

However, for technical applications there are a number of specific requirements that a language must provide.

In this section we examine the Benefits and Shortcomings of Java for technical computing tasks. We also list some examples of real-world applications of Java in science and technical fields.
