Java Platform



The Java platform is the name for a bundle of related programs, or platform, from Sun Microsystems which allow for developing and running programs written in the Java programming language. The platform is not specific to any one processor or operating system, but rather, an execution engine (called a virtual machine) and a compiler with a set of standard libraries are implemented for various hardware and operatings systems so that Java programs can run identically on all of them.
