ultiplicação de matrizes paralelas em Java

ntem fiz uma pergunta sobre multiplicação matricial paralela no Java 7 usando a estrutura fork / joinAqu. Com a ajuda do axtavt, consegui que meu programa de exemplo funcionasse. Agora estou implementando um programa equivalente usando apenas a funcionalidade Java 6. Recebo o mesmo problema de ontem, apesar de aplicar o feedback que o axtavt me deu (acho). Estou negligenciando alguma coisa? Código

package algorithms;

import java.util.concurrent.ExecutorService;

    private static final int SIZE = 1024;

    private final ExecutorService executor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(MAX_THREADS);

    private float[][] a = new float[SIZE][SIZE];
    private float[][] b = new float[SIZE][SIZE];
    private float[][] c = new float[SIZE][SIZE];

    @Override
    public void initialize() {
        init(a, b, SIZE);
    }

    @Override
    public void execute() {
        MatrixMultiplyTask task =  new MatrixMultiplyTask(a, 0, 0, b, 0, 0, c, 0, 0, SIZE);
        task.split();

        executor.shutdown();    
        try {
            executor.awaitTermination(Integer.MAX_VALUE, TimeUnit.DAYS);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            System.out.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void printResult() {
        check(c, SIZE);

        for (int i = 0; i < SIZE && i <= 10; i++) {
            for (int j = 0; j < SIZE && j <= 10; j++) {         
                if(j == 10) {
                    System.out.print("...");
                }
                else {
                    System.out.print(c[i][j] + " ");
                }
            }

            if(i == 10) {
                System.out.println();
                for(int k = 0; k < 10; k++) System.out.print(" ... ");
            }   

            System.out.println();
        }       

        System.out.println();
    }
