Java acceleration to
aid Chinese handsets
ZRRT Communications Technology is collaborating with ARM to integrate the ARM Jazelle Technology Enabling Kit (JTEK) software into ZRRT's Java virtual machine
The ARM JTEK technology will be used to help develop Java mobile phone services for UniJa, a Java-based, value-adding service platform promoted by the strategic alliance of China Unicom, Sun Microsystems and ZRRT. ARM Jazelle technology enables devices to execute Java byte code directly, so wireless and internet device developers can build in the capability to run high-performance Java technology applications much faster, with limited power and cost penalties.

"We are looking forward to building on our partnership with ZRRT, to help them provide China Unicom's subscribers with the next generation of Java applications", said Jun Tan, President, ARM China.
"Embedded Java technology offers consumers better mobile applications without compromising battery life, which is why ZRRT has chosen to work with ARM and its proven JTEK solution for the UniJa Java environment for mobile phones".
