- BicaVM – Javascript implementation of JVM – https://github.com/nurv/BicaVM
- This project is an implementation of a JVM in JavaScript. At the moment it runs Java code, but is more like a proof of concept than a real JVM. A lot of work is required to make this JVM run Java code
(including writing an entire runtime enviroment).
BicaVM can interpret a big chunk of the JVM’s bytecode (probably around 60%). However, it is wildy incomplete. It has a JNI interface that maps to JavaScript functions. It has no JIT compilation.- “BicaVM: JVM in JavaScript – Why?” by Artur Ventura (Surf The Edge blog; 2011.11.20) – http://www.surf-the-edge.com/2011/11/15/bicavm-jvm-in-javascript-why/

Hi,
FYI, we have developed another Java VM which can be converted in Javascript and run in a HTML5 browser:
