Java虚拟机(JVM)内部干些什么

来自一家开发商业Java虚拟机的公司Azul Systems的 Ian Rogers博士，2011年5月27日做了一次演讲 叫“

Learn about JVM internals - what does the JVM do?

”。简单讲解了Java虚拟机内部实现的若干主要方面的问题，包括字节码解释，JIT编译，垃圾回收，Compaction等主要机制和挑战。

演讲的议题是：

The JVM from transisters up

 - Interpreters

 - A simple JIT compiler

 - MOre complex compilers

Challenges and novel solutions in JVM design

 - Object-oriented

 - Class loading

 - Garbage collectors

Zing

演讲中show了以下幻灯片(只列出标题)：
