virtual machine technologies for dynamic compilation, adaptive optimization, garbage collection, thread scheduling, and synchronization. A distinguishing characteristic of Jikes RVM is that it is implemented in the Java programming language and is self-hosted i.e., its Java code runs on itself without requiring a second virtual machine. This provides ease of portability, and a seamless integration of virtual machine and application resources such as objects, threads, and operating-system interfaces. [Less]
