Page 2 Java Card Platform Options List, v3.1 Preface Java Card technology combines a subset of the Java programming language with a runtime environment optimized for secure elements, such as smart cards and other tamper-resistant security chips. Java Card technology offers a secure and interoperable execution platform that can store and update multiple applications on a single resource-constrained device, while retaining the highest certification levels and compatibility with standards. Java Card developers can build, test, and deploy applications and services rapidly and securely. This accelerated process reduces development costs, increases product differentiation, and enhances value to customers. The Classic Edition of the Java Card platform is defined by three specifications: • Java Card Runtime Environment Specification, Java Card Platform, Version 3.1, Classic Edition, • Virtual Machine Specification, Java Card Platform, Version 3.1, Classic Edition, • Application Programming Interface, Java Card Platform, Version 3.1, Classic Edition. This document describes the list of options available to implement a Java Card platform, based on the Java Card Specifications. Who Should Use This Document This document is intended both for Oracle Java Card licensees who are implementing the Java Card Platform and for application developers who want an understanding of the changes introduced in this release of the Java Card specifications. Before You Read This Document Before reading this guide, you should be familiar with the Java programming language, the Java Card technology specifications, and smart card technology.
