Preface
This document describes the license information for Java Card Development Kit Simulator and Java Card Development Kit Tools.
Java Card technology combines a subset of the Java programming language with a runtime environment optimized for secure elements, such as smart cards and other tamper-resistant security chips. Java Card technology offers a secure and interoperable execution platform that can store and update multiple applications on a single resource-constrained device, while retaining the highest certification levels and compatibility with standards. Java Card developers can build, test, and deploy applications and services rapidly and securely. This accelerated process reduces development costs, increases product differentiation, and enhances value to customers.
The Java Card API is compatible with international standards for secure elements, such as ISO 7816 or mobile communication standards issued by ETSI/3GPP. Major industry-specific standards, such as EMVCo and Global Platform refer to this standard.
