Introduction

HAVM is a virtual machine designed to execute simple register based high level intermediate code. It is based on the intermediate representations ("canonicalized" or not) defined by [[1][Andrew Appel]] in his _[[2][Modern Compiler Implementation]]_ books. It is nevertheless generic enough so that any (student) compiler could target its intermediate language to HAVM's language.

Its features are:

  • two object types, integers and pointers
  • tree-like source language (two way conditional jumps, arbitrarily nested subroutines calls, etc.)
  • threaded source language (one way conditional jumps, etc.)
  • a runtime library comparable to SPIM's
  • a debugging mode displaying the instructions being executed
