| − | The pages grouped under this category provide information about Virtual Machines used in academic or professional environments as the target of some compilers.

| − | A Virtual Machine (VM) is a program that simulates the behavior of a real CPU.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The program uses data structures to implement the blocks that compose the machine architecture like the ''decoder'',
| + | |
| − | the ''controller'', the ''registers'', the ''stack'', the ''data'' and ''program memories'', the ''input/output ports'', etc.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | It accepts as input a ''list of instructions'' (the machine code), written in the style of an Assembly language (operator followed by zero or
| + | |
| − | more operands), and interprets (recognizes and
| + | |
| − | executes) them sequentially from the first to the last or until finding one that halts the execution.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | In this way, the VM simulates the execution of the program (defined by that list of instructions) on a real CPU.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The biggest advantage of using a VM as the target of a Compiler is the possibility to run a program independently of the hardware.
| + | |
| − | The most famous example is JVM, Java Virtual Machine, used by the Java Compiler -- in this way the same java byte-code can be executed in any hardware platform where a JVM is installed.
