Abstract

Kaffe was ported to ARM7/uClinux which was popular embedded platform in this paper, and "Java runtime environment" was built to support executing Java applications. According to characteristics of ARM7 such as the length of instructions and data types, the interpreter core and the data structure of Kaffe were modified, which made ARM7 with the revised Kaffe can access Memory and solve the problem which came from the MMU-Less in the system, and provided technical method for porting Kaffe to other system platforms which was MMU-Less. Finally, make used of test tool set to test the completed system, and the test result did not only verify the system\´s availability, but also provided the reference for the designer of embedded system to choose Java virtual machine.
