Description
Summary:As embedded and real-time systems are becoming more and more Internet-enabled with a plethora of processors, operating systems, and peripheral device types; the line between general purpose programming and low-level specialized programming is now blurring and systems that used to be specialized and low-level become larger and more complex. The Java environment, with its platform neutrality, simplified object model, strong notions of safety and security, as well as multithreading support, provides many advantages for the new generation of embedded and real-time systems. However, the large size, nondeterministic behavior, and poor performance have hampered the acceptance of Java in the real-time and embedded systems domain. This paper reviews the current state of Java in the new generation of embedded and real-time systems domain.
