KoiViMa
KoiViMa stands for Korean Inspired Virtual Machine.
It is an experimental object oriented application virtual machine written
in the Java programming language.
KoiViMa's main features are:
-
Object oriented: Not only is KoiViMa itself written in an object
oriented language. Even the code it runs consists of objects. Every
single instruction and even data values are objects.
-
Extensible: Each instruction for KoiViMa is represented by an operator,
which is a Java class. Adding a new operator is simply done by adding
a class to the specific
operators
directory.
-
Pluggable Execution context: A program in KoiViMa runs in an execution context,
representing some form of machine. The execution context is a wrapper
for the code itself, the stack, different kinds of memory, registers
and so on. The execution context can easily be customized allowing
KoiViMa to represent different kinds of computers.
-
Self adapting compiler: KoiViMa comes with a compiler that updates it's
instruction set by searching the
operators
directory.
It is capable to compile code for different instruction sets and execution
contexts.
