 Beagle is a Cray XE6 supercomputer at UChicago. It employs a batch-oriented
 computational model where-in a PBS schedular accepts user's jobs and queues
-them in the queueing system for execution. The computational model requires
-a user to prepare the submit files, track job submissions, chackpointing,
-managing input/output data and handling exceptional conditions manually.
-Running Swift under Beagle can accomplish the above tasks with least manual
-user intervention and maximal oppurtunistic computation time on Beagle
-queues. In the following sections, we discuss more about specifics of
-running Swift on Beagle. A more detailed information about Swift and its

+Getting Started with Swift
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 Follow the steps outlined below to get started with Swift on Beagle:
 
-*step 1.* Load the Swift module on Beagle as follows: +module load swift+
+*step 1.* Load the Swift and Sun-java module on Beagle as follows: +module load swift sun-java+
 
 *step 2.* Create and change to a directory where your Swift related work will
 stay. (say, +mkdir swift-lab+, followed by, +cd swift-lab+)

 The most likely cause is the module is not loaded. Do the following to load the Swift module:
