Java Community Demonstrates Support for ARM
CAMBRIDGE, UK - June 7, 2000
"With more than 180 million ARM core-based devices shipped in 1999, it was inevitable that market demand would significantly increase for Java applications running on ARM Powered[tm] systems," said Reynette Au, vice president of Worldwide Marketing for ARM. "This increase in Java support continues the momentum that ARM has built in a wide variety of applications, from networking and consumer entertainment solutions to automotive devices."
Announcements
inSilicon Corporation announced the availability of their JVX[tm] accelerator technology that increases Java[tm]-based performance of system performance up to tenfold. The combination of the JVX technology and the ARM7TDMI® processor core at 40 MHz is expected to yield an Embedded Caffeine Mark approaching 200 -- considered world-class embedded system performance for Java applications."ARM works closely with its 3rd party partners to ensure that there is a broad range of optimal Java platforms built around the ARM architecture," explained Andrew Cummins, Java program manager for ARM. "The combination of accelerator solutions like the JVX technology with our low-power, low-cost architecture helps deliver enhanced Java performance to the market."
Sun Microsystems announced that leading silicon partners are shipping a wide range of hardware chip solutions that further enhance the performance, power utilization or chip functionality for consumer products utilizing the Java? platform.
"ARM also collaborates with partners like Sun Microsystems, to expand the depth and breadth of Java solutions optimized for the ARM architecture," explained Cummins.
Tao Group announced that its multimedia system for enhancing Java? technology based applications, the intent, Java Technology Edition, has been awarded Sun Authorized Virtual Machine status by passing Sun's comprehensive PersonalJava? test suites. The high-performance, memory-efficient intent software is currently being implemented in a broad range of markets including digital games, home networking, digital television, automotive and phones.
"Solutions like Tao's intent software provide our silicon and systems partners with highly-effective multimedia components for the next-generation of Java-enabled devices," added Cummins.
Benefits
ARM core-based systems offer a number of advantages for running Java technology-based applications for a variety of technical reasons. The 16/32-bit ARM architecture offers a large, flat memory model that simplifies the development of systems that have extensive software requirements. The RISC register organization is ideal for maintaining rapid, local access to interpreter variables without the overhead of accessing memory, offering higher performance at lower power consumption.The ARM architecture's industry-leading performance/power ratio, which has made it the preferred embedded processor solution for the wireless market, will help drive adoption of the Java platform in portable handheld applications including PDAs and digital cell phones. The core's extensive support from 3rd party operating system and development tools vendors will also support the momentum for ARM Powered, Java platform-based systems.
