  • Abstract
    The article briefly introduces modern control networks and surveys severe problems one faces when porting a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) to embedded devices. Some possible solutions for those problems are presented, namely special purpose VMs, just-in-time (JIT) compilers or the use of compiled byte-code are evaluated. Finally, we assess a potential solution regarding a new approach for a Java embedded network that is currently under research and should be implemented in a future project
