Abstract
Since java thread is an object which is treated as independent process within one execution space in the multiprocessing environment, we can use it for independent process of parallel processing. Using thread and synchronization mechanism of java enables us to write parallel application program easily. Therefore, a lot of results are exist which is apply the feature of java that support parallel processing to the distributed computing environment. In this paper, we introduce a system of environment that support parallel execution of thread which is included in legacy java program. The system named TORB(Transparent Object Request Broker) enables us parallel execution of legacy java program after simple converting process, since it support the feature of programming transparency. TORB is extended version of distributed programming tool that is published by our research team. And it had only typical distributed processing feature that is execute a specified function at the specified computer.
