 | | Java's strong appeal for embedded applications is sometimes offset by concerns about its speed and its memory requirements. |
 | | When selecting an embedded Java platform, you must take into account a host of other factors, beyond the scope of this article, that have an impact on performance. |
 | | Among them are hardware processor selection, Java compatibility and supported APIs, application reliability and scalability, the choice of a real-time operating system (RTOS) with associated native libraries and drivers, the availability of Java development tool kits and middleware, graphics support, and the ability to put the application code into ROM. |
