Jazelle(Java)
The ARM926EJ-S processor has ARM’s embedded Jazelle Java acceleration hardware
in the core. Java offers rapid application development to software engineers.
The ARM926EJ-S processor core executes an extended ARMv5TE instruction set,
which includes support for Java byte code execution (ARMv5TEJ). An ARM optimized
Java Virtual Machine (JVM) software layer has been written to work with the
Jazelle hardware. The Java byte code acceleration is accomplished by the
following:
Hardware, which directly executes 80% of simple Java byte codes.
