A time predictable Java processor

This paper presents a Java processor, called JOP, designed for time-predictable execution of real-time tasks. JOP is the implementation of the Java virtual machine in hardware. We propose a processor architecture that favors low worst-case execution time (WCET) over average case performance. The resulting processor is an easy target for the low-level WCET analysis.
