Recently the use of the portable device like a PDA or a Smart-Phone increases to follow, Java technology that support Platform Independence on Hardware Flatform has become core Flatform in Software sphere. Especially Portable device use a KVM(Kilobyte Virtual Machine) of Java's various specification. In this paper, we design and implement Java Game Application for verification of KVM and verify on Real-Time Operating System iRTOS.

Class area is a portion of memory where the constants, fields, and codes of the classes loaded into the Java virtual machine are kept. Knowing the size of the class area is very important especially for embedded Java system with limited memory resources. This paper induces a formula which makes it possible estimate the size of the area. The formula needs some constant values specific to target JVM implementation. We also show that these values can be found using some simple probe classes. An experimental result is included in this paper to confirm the correctness of our approach.

This paper compares the differences between Java virtual machine and x86 processor in data transfer viewpoint. Memory models of JVM and x86 are analyzed and the data transfer paths are identified. As all operations must be performed to the values on operand stack, a great many data transfer operation is unavoidable in JVM. We also lists the number of data transfer operations necessary for executing some typical high-level language statements including assignment, arithmetic, conditional, and iterative statements.

Sensor network consists of a large number of sensor node distributed in the environment being sensed and controlled. The resource-constrained sensor nodes tend to have various and heterogeneous architecture. Thus, it is important to make its software environment platform-independent and reprogrammable. In this paper, we present BeeVM, a Java operating system designed for sensor networks. BeeVM offers a platform-independent Java programming environment with its efficiently executable file format and a set of class APIs for basic operating functions, sensing and wireless networking. BeeVM's high-level native interface and layered network subsystem allow complex program for sensor network to be short and readable. Our platform has been ported on two currently popular hardware platforms and we show its effectiveness through the evaluation of a simple application.

JVM(Java Virtual Machine) has GUI(Graphical User Interface) facility and Platform Independance and is used on the embedded device such as set-top box and smart phone. This needs JVM to execute Java application in the embedded device. CVM(Classic Virtual Machine) which is the kind of JVM is designed for embedded device to have limited resources. To support GUI facility of JAVA uses PBP(Personal Basis Profile) which is included on CVM. The PBP defines the GUI Stardard API to support GUI facility. When the GUI Stardard API is implemented, JNI(Java Native Interface) is used to connect between Java Native Method and Native function in Operating System. In this pater, PBP which is defined by CVM has designed and implemented on the Real-Time Operating System, iRTOS.

Java virtual machine provides code compactness, simple execution engines, and platform-independence which are important features for small devices such as mobile or embedded device, but it has a big problem, such as low throughput due to stack-oriented operation. In this paper hardware lava accelerator targeted for mobile or embedded application is designed to eliminate the slow speed problem of lava virtual machine. The designed lava accelerator can execute 81 instructions of Java virtual machine(JVM)'s opcodes and be used as Java coprocessor of conventional 32-bit RISC processor with efficient coprocessor interface and instruction buffer. It consists of about 14,300 gates and its maximum operating frequency is about 50 Mhz under 0.35um CMOS technology.

Java's performance is sometimes not acceptable due to interpretation overhead by the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). In this paper, we present a compiler structure of Java-to-C translator for high performance on resource limited environment like mobile devices. Our compiler framework translates Java into C codes to preserve Java's programming semantics such as inheritance, method overloading, virtual method invocation, and so on. Also our compiler fully supports Connected Limited Device Configuration (CLDC) 1.0 API's. We show that our compiler improves the speedup by up to eleven times more than JVM-only execution in measured benchmarks.

In the Java a profiler interface such as JVM TI is provided for communication between a Java virtual machine and a profiler. The JVM TI specification, however does not require an implementation of a profiler interface. Consequently the JVM without an implementation of a profiler interface cannot use a profiler with the JVM TI. For solving the problem, we propose a technique which analyzes heap usage without a profiler interface. This technique inserts codes to extract heap usage into source files in the Java. We implemented a code inserter to verify the proposed technique. We experimented with Java programs that are frequently used and opened. the experimental result presents the number of created objects. the maximum number of allocated objects, and the used pattern of the objects.

본 논문에서는 지연계산기반 함수형 언어 프로그램을 받아 Java 프로그램을 목적 코드로 생성하는 컴파일러를 설계하고 구현한다. 이 컴파일러는 제한된 형태의 함수형 언어 Shared Term Graph(STG)를 입력언어로 하는 추상기계 Spineless Tagiess G-Machine (STGM)을 수행 모델로 한다. 본 논문에서는 명령형 언어 L-code를 제안하고 이를 입력언어로 하는 새로운 형태의 STGM인 L-Machine을 제안한다. STG 언어를 L-code로 변환하는 컴파일러와 L-code를 Java로 변환하는 컴파일러를 설계하고 구현함으로써 원하는 컴파일러를 구성한다. 그리고 Glasgow Haskell 컴파일러를 전단부로 하여 지연계산 기반 함수형 언어 Haskell로 작성된 프로그램들을 컴파일하여 STG 프로그램으로 변환한 다음 본 논문에서 구현한 컴파일러로 이를 Java 프로그램으로 변환한다. 변환된 Java 프로그램을 Sun JIT 컴파일러로 컴파일하여 수행한 성능 평가 결과를 제시한다.

In this paper we analyzed performance of Andriod's Davik virtual machine(VM) using standard benchmark and compared the result with the embedded Java virtual machine. We used a well known benchmark suit named SPECJVM for the measurement. For the fair comparison, Sun Java embedded JVM is ported and the same benchmark is ported on it. The Odriod smartphone hardware platform is used as the target hardware. We have added a Just-In-Time compiler to Dalvik, which is not supported in the recent Android release, and measured performance improvement. The experiment result show that Dalvik achieved 15% and Dalvik with JIT shows 63% of the Sun's JVM performance.
