The KVM is a compact Java virtual machine (JVM) that is designed for small devices. It supports a subset of the features of the JVM. For example, the KVM does not support floating-point operations and object finalization. The CLDC specifies use of the KVM. According to folklore, the 'K' in KVM stands for kilobyte, signifying that the KVM runs in kilobytes of memory as opposed to megabytes.
Kilobyte Virtual Machine The name of the Java virtual machine (VM or JVM)included in the reference implementation of the Connected Limited Device Configuration. Sometimes used as a generic replacement for a Java virtual machine designed to run in a constrained environment, though technically it really refers to a specific implementation of such a VM.
