ABSTRACT
Java has been developed with the particular suitability for embedded computing in mind due to its high portability. However, when it comes to safety-critical systems, some beneficial features of Java, like Garbage Collection, are less suitable. Over the years communities have been working on suitable compromises, leading to the work on domain-specific Java standards like the Real-Time Specification for Java (RTSJ) and more recently the Safety-Critical Java (SCJ).
In this paper we present the agenda and outline the design for a new Java Virtual Machine (JVM) for mixed-criticality systems, with the particular emphasis on not forbidding the use of standard Java libraries within the non-critical tasks.. We propose a high-level design of a JVM featuring design ideas to allow support for mixed-criticality systems.
