Serious Execution Environment Supporting Java™ platform applications on Serious Embedded Systems

PERC is a clean-room Virtual Machine (VM) supporting the execution of Java™ platform applications in embedded systems.

PERC was expressly created for use in demanding embedded systems--not retro-fitted after the fact. PERC delivers the ease, elegance, and efficiency of Java without sacrificing the integrity, performance, or real-time benefits of legacy approaches.

PERC VM features:

• Ahead-of-Time & Just-in-Time (AOT/JIT) compilation to speed execution up to 20x
• High reliability and performance
• Remote debug support (AOT, JIT, and interpreted)
• Superior memory management (accurate, incremental, and paced garbage collection)
• Garbage collector pacing agent monitors the memory allocation behavior and controls garbage collection
• Deterministic, with field-leading low latencies
• Backed by unequaled support and services
• VxWorks, VxSim, OSE, OSE Softkernel, QNX, Linux, LynxOS, and WinNT support
• PPC PPC, ARM, XSCALE, and x86 support

Product Peripherals:

ROMizer™ Static Linking Tool reduces memory footprint and provides C-like pre-linked image for fast, reliable start-up

PERC Accelerator accelerates standard Java class files and enables dynamic loading of ahead-of-time compiled code

PERC Shell provides an easy way to monitor and manage the PERC VM via a serial or telnet connection
