Abstract

This paper introduces the SOM (Simple Object Machine) family of virtual machine (VM) implementations. Starting from a Java-based implementation, several ports of the VM to different programming languages have been developed and put to successful use in teaching at both undergraduate and graduate levels since 2006. Moreover, the VMs have been used in various research projects. We document the rationale behind each of the SOM VMs and results that have been achieved in teaching and research.
