Projects

Mono

Mono provides the necessary software to develop and run .NET client and server applications on Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, Windows, and Unix. Sponsored by Novell (http://www.novell.com), the Mono open source project has an active and enthusiastic contributing community and is positioned to become the ... [More] leading choice for development of Linux applications. [Less]

OpenJDK

Open-source version of Java Development Kit for Java Platform Standard Edition.

Apache Portable Runtime

claimed by Apache Software Foundation

The mission of the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) project is to create and maintain software libraries that provide a predictable and consistent interface to underlying platform-specific implementations. The primary goal is to provide an API to which software developers may code and be assured of ... [More] predictable if not identical behaviour regardless of the platform on which their software is built, relieving them of the need to code special-case conditions to work around or take advantage of platform-specific deficiencies or features. [Less]

GNU Classpath

GNU Classpath (Essential Libraries for Java) is a project to create free core class libraries for use with virtual machines and compilers for the java programming language. It includes all native methods and core classes necessary for a completely functional java runtime.

Apache Harmony

claimed by Apache Software Foundation

Apache Harmony is the Java SE project of the Apache Software Foundation. The aim of the project is to produce a large and healthy community of those interested in runtime platforms tasked with creation of: - a compatible, independent implementation of Java SE under the Apache License v2 - a ... [More] community-developed modular runtime (VM and class library) architecture. [Less]

MOSA Project

The Managed Operating System Alliance (MOSA) Framework is a set of operating system components, compiler tools and libraries for managed operating systems based on the Common Intermediate Language and .NET technology. We provide the foundation for other projects, such as SharpOS.

BESEN

BESEN is an acronym for "Bero's EcmaScript Engine", and it is a complete ECMAScript Fifth Edition Implemention in Object Pascal, which is compilable with Delphi >=7 and FreePascal >= 2.5.1 (2.4.0 only inoffically). BESEN is licensed under the LGPL license with ... [More] static-linking-exception. Features: It's a complete implementation of the ECMAScript Fifth Edition standard, and it has x86/x64 native code just-in-time compilers. [Less]

JikesRVM

Jikes RVM (Research Virtual Machine) provides a flexible open testbed to prototype virtual machine technologies and experiment with a large variety of design alternatives. The system is licensed under an OSI approved license. Jikes RVM runs on many platforms and advances the state-of-the-art of ... [More] virtual machine technologies for dynamic compilation, adaptive optimization, garbage collection, thread scheduling, and synchronization. A distinguishing characteristic of Jikes RVM is that it is implemented in the Java™ programming language and is self-hosted i.e., its Java code runs on itself without requiring a second virtual machine. Most other virtual machines for the Java platform are written in native code (typically, C or C++). A Java implementation provides ease of portability, and a seamless integration of virtual machine and application resources such as objects, threads, and operating-system interfaces. [Less]

RingoJS

Ensemble

Ensemble is an effort to write the next generation operating system using CIL compliant languages (currently only C#). The main focus of Ensemble is to write an consumer- and enterprise-level operating system that can be used in the real world.
