HyphaeVM is a bytecode VM that aims to provide a simplified instruction set to
|
||||||
|
language implementors and other programmers who wish to use higher level
|
||||||
|
features without making too many compromises on overhead or performance.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The simplified instruction set greatly reduces the work in language design and
|
||||||
|
allows for simpler compilers overall. Meanwhile, the VM still meets performance
|
||||||
|
needs for modern application development.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
HyphaeVM contains an instruction set, instruction set implementation, garbage
|
||||||
|
collection (reference counting), error handling, dynamic number package, vector
|
||||||
|
based data types, cons cell based dynamic data types, and trap functions that
|
||||||
|
are programmatically extendable.
