Abstract
Single-language runtime systems, in the form of Java virtual machines, are widely deployed platforms for executing untrusted mobile code. These runtimes provide some of the features that operating systems provide: inter-application memory protection and basic system services. They do not, however, provide the ability to isolate applications from each other, or limit their resource consumption. This paper describes KaffeOS, a system that provides these features for a Java runtime. The KaffeOS architecture takes many lessons from operating system design, such as the use of a user/kernel boundary.
