Java SE in Embedded Devices
Java ME has been in Mobile devices now for almost 10 years but as embedded hardware increases in power and memory size it is becoming more and more feasible to run a full Java SE JVM. This seminar will explore the different markets and devices where Java is being adopted and also the different versions of Java available from Oracle to run on these devices and the optimisations we have made to enable this to happen. From small memory footprint versions and headless versions to power management capabilities.
