You're working with a part of Java2D as part of your doctoral thesis!?
Wow. Be sure to send a copy of your results to the folks at Sun so they
can include the research in their efforts. I heard from a Professor once
(who was almost one of the founding people at Sun--good friend of Bill
Joy or something) that Sun is pretty tight about allowing academics
to do research on their platforms (Java in particular). Maybe he was in
a bad mood that day, though.
Good luck! :-)
