Ateji is a Paris-based software vendor specialized in programming languages.
Based on its unique technology and know-how, Ateji has recently developed
and released a Java language extension for parallel programming, based on
sound theoretical foundations.

The aim of this original approach is to make parallel programming simple and
intuitive, accessible to all application developpers. Parallel programs are
compatible with existing libraries, programming tools and development
processes. Correctness of parallel compostion can be guaranteed statically
at run-time.

Patrick Viry is the founder of Ateji. He earned his PhD at INRIA, studying
the theoretical foundations of parallelism. He spent 8 years in Japan, both
in the academia and industry. Back to France, he architected a new domain
specific language at Ilog, one of the largest french software vendor, before
founding Ateji in 2005.

By joining HiPEAC, Ateji wants to bring an important contribution towards
making high-performance computing available to non-specialists outside the
HPC community.
