[openrisc] Porting Juice & OMI/GLUE to OpenRISC?

[test1@yahoo.com]

Hi,
I read about portable software platforms called JUICE and OMI/GLUE. JUICE was created by Mr Michael Franz from UCLA Irvine and FTH Swiss. OMI/GLUE is a project on ANDF (Architecture Neutral Distribution Format) from ESPRIT / European IT Research project. With this platform, the same application software can run on several different types of CPU without modification.
Is it possible to port JUICE and OMI/GLUE to OpenRISC?

"Rather than being interpreted, as Java applets normally are, Juice always compiles each applet into the native code of the target machine before it begins execution. Once that an applet begins executing, it runs at the full speed of compiled code. Juice's on-the-fly compilation process is not only exceptionally fast, but it also generates object code that is comparable in quality to commercial
C compilers."

"The global objective of the project is to use the ANDF technology to provide a common interface between a number of RISC microprocessor based systems and a set of application software packages; the idea being to insulate the application software from the underlying O/S and hardware base, in order to avoid the huge expense associated with repeated porting from one base to another."
