K (kilobyte) Virtual Machine (KVM) is a reference implementation of a CLDC JVM from Sun Microsystems. KVM forms the basis for a number of commercial J2ME devices, and also of the MIDP emulator in Sun's Wireless Toolkit product. However, it is a popular misconception that KVM and CLDC are synonymous. KVM is a piece of code, CLDC is a specification. CLDC implementation exist that are not based on KVM.
