Open Source Linux Virtual Machine Software

The Mozart Programming System is an open source implementation of the programming language Oz 3. Oz is a multi-paradigm language that supports declarative programming, object-oriented programming, constraint programming, concurrency and distributed programming as part of a coherent whole.

Ela is a modern functional programming language that runs on CLR and Mono. It is implemented in 100% .NET and C#. Main project hosting is CodePlex: https://ela.codeplex.com/

Dyalect is a dynamic programming language for .NET Core platform. It is lightweight, fast and modern. Dyalect (or Dy for short) is written in C# and has zero dependencies except for standard .NET Core libraries, which means that it can seamlessly run on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Moreover you can use the same binaries on any of these platforms! Dy runs on the top of its own high performance virtual machine. It compiles fast and can be used as an embeddable language or as a scripting language of your choice. It is also a good language to learn programming. Dyalect offers modern syntax, inspired by such languages as C#, Swift, Go and Rust, first class functions, coroutines, expressive modules, a dynamic type system with an ability to extend existing types with new functions and much more. Dy is shipped with a crossplatform interactive console. Main repo: https://github.com/vorov2/dyalect

Pika is a fast, lightweight, dynamic multi-paradigm programming language. Its list of features includes: First Class Functions, Closures, Lexical Scoping, Optimized Tail Calls, Classes, Cooperative threads, Packages, Properties and Exceptions.

The ucsd-psystem-vm project is a portable virtual machine (p-code interpreter) for the UCSD p-System. It supports execution of Apple ][ Pascal programs, it can even display TurtleGraphics using X11.

ZLR is a Z-Machine interpreter designed to run modern interactive fiction games.

OpenXL provides a flexible, platform-independent SOA/Web Service middleware and workflow programming language (SLL). OpenXL supports the creation, provisioning and execution of Web Services as well as the integration of code written in BPEL, Java, etc.

SUBLEQ is a machine language in which there are no opcodes, the only operation available is substract and branch if negative or zero. This project offers a virtual machine for SUBLEQ programs. The included compiler allows you to write SUBLEQ more easy.

C++ STL-based parser toolkit that allows the specification of EBNF-like grammars (using operator overloading) and the conversion of arbitrary input (text, tokens or other) to user-defined structures through events attached to grammatic rules.

a sed like script language for parsing context free languages. the language implements a virtual machine which is appropriate for parsing and transforming context free languages. an implementation in c++ is nearing completion (apr07)

URBI: Universal Robotic Body Interface. URBI is a scripted command language used to control robots (AIBO, pioneer,...). It is a robot-independant API based on a client/server architecture. Liburbi C++/Java/Matlab are available here. Forum available at ht

YABI93 is an Interpreter for the esoteric programming language Befunge, version "Befunge93". It is written in Java 1.5 and uses Swing for its graphical interface. YABI supports a multilanguage GUI.

baffle Is an extension to BF language (https://esolangs.org/wiki/brainfuck), which itself in turn is a extension of Turing machine. baffle extends BF by adding a stack, support for procedures, adding more arithmetic instructions, and a register. baffle can run original BF programs, and while it's not the fastest implementation of BF, but it's written in such a way that makes it easier to replace the instruction set, and to write similar languages. Every cell is a single byte, and the tape wraps.

elastiC is a Very High Level Language (VHLL) with a C-like syntax. Dynamically typed, with fast Garbage Collection, supports functional programming and robust Object Orientation. Designed to be easily extended and embedded, it's portable and lightweight.

A MIPS processor modeled in Java for educational purposes and aimed at undergraduate Computer Architecture courses. It presently runs MIPS 32-bit R3000 ELF executables on any platform where Java itself will run. Five successively more sophisticated models of a pipelined MIPS RISC processor are included. Though the code is deliberately kept clear and simple in order that readers are able to figure out how a real processor works through the medium of the code, it will soon be able to run a real Linux O/S kernel compiled for MIPS in Java - at what speed we don't know!

Jau, a VM in Java with tail-calls & continuations.
