Java in Safety Critical Systems
Until recently, the preferred language for developing safety critical applications has been Ada, but this is beginning to change. The number of developers willing to program in Ada is diminishing, while the complexity of applications is increasing. Where as C and C++ are poor alternatives to Ada, realtime Java specifications have benefited from strong cross fertilisation from the Ada community,...
متن کاملReal-Time Music synthesis in Java using the Metronome Garbage Collector
Automatic memory management via garbage collection is the key to the safety, portability, and high productivity of modern programming languages like Java. However, until now no truly real-time garbage collector has existed for Java. As a result, the extreme real-time requirements of interactive music synthesis and processing have made it impossible to build such systems in Java. We have develop...
متن کاملHard Real-Time Garbage-Collection in the Jamaica Virtual Machine
Java S automatic memory management is the main reason that prevents Java from being used in hard realtime environments. We present the garbage collection mechanism that is used by the Jamaica Virtual Machine, an implementation of the Java Virtual Machine Specification. This mechanism differs significantly from existing implementations in the way threads are implemented, root references are foun...
متن کاملRealtime Music Programming using snd-RT
A revolutionary system for programming sound and music in realtime is being presented. The system provides interfaces to extremely efficient high-level and garbageproducing programming languages, which process indivudal samples at a time, sample by sample, in realtime. This is possible by using the Rollendurchmesserzeitsammler garbage collector, the only known conservative garbage collector sui...
متن کاملConstant-Time Root Scanning for Deterministic Garbage Collection
Root scanning is the task of identifying references to heap objects that are stored outside of the heap itself, in global and local variables and on the execution stack. Root scanning is particularly difficult within an incremental garbage collector that needs to be deterministic or give hard realtime guarantees. Here, a method that allows exact root scanning is presented. The basic idea is to ...
