Java optimized processor

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Java Optimized Processor (JOP) is an implementation of a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) in hardware (a Java processor). JOP is open-source under the GNU General Public License, version 3.

The intention of JOP is to provide a small hardware JVM for embedded real-time systems. The main feature is the predictability of the execution time of Java bytecodes. JOP is implemented in an FPGA.
