An Invitation from the Program Chair
Dear Colleague,
Java has gone from a specialized language for web devices to being used in
everything from embedded devices to the largest servers. Its ability to be
hosted on such a wide range of platforms is the key to its extreme utility and
portability.
Java has come a long way in its first nine years of life. The Second Java
Virtual Machine Research and Technology Symposium will show you where Java VM
stands today, and where it is heading tomorrow.
Featuring an excellent selection of technical presentations and papers from
around the world, Java VM '02 dives under the
covers of the latest academic and experimental virtual machines and garbage
collectors. Among the hot topics:
The Keynote speech comes from Robert Berry, Distinguished Engineer, at The IBM
Centre for Java Technology. He will
discuss the forces shaping the Java revolution, and how Java will change because
of those forces. An invited talk from David Tarditi, manager of the Advanced
Compiler Technology at Microsoft Research, will describe the components of the
.NET software initiative and the research opportunities and
challenges presented by a multi-language VM.
If you want a place to talk technical and to network with other JVM implementers,
join us in SF on August 1st and 2nd.
I look forward to seeing you there!
