1 Scope p. 6
The present document is a technical report consisting of a benefits analysis and a feasibility study on the creation of a framework enabling the application of MExE to arbitrary runtime environments.
2 References p. 6
The following documents contain provisions, which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present document.
- References are either specific (identified by date of publication, edition number, version number, etc.) or non-specific.
- For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply.
- For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies. In the case of a reference to a 3GPP document (including a GSM document), a non-specific reference implicitly refers to the latest version of that document in the same Release as the present document.

3 Definitions, symbols and abbreviations p. 6
3.1 Definitions p. 6
For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply.
RTIF mapping:
A table or description of implementation details that describe how a specific runtime environment meets the requirements of the Runtime Independent Framework. Applying the Runtime Independent Framework to a specific runtime technology includes the generic RTIF framework as well as any runtime-dependent details that must be defined in order to make the runtime conformant to the RTIF.
Runtime Environment:
The environment for a specific runtime technology, including APIs and access to system resources, within which an application executes.
Runtime Profile:
A runtime may support one or more variations of capabilities and services using the same core runtime technology. The details of what exactly is included in a specific combination is termed a Runtime Profile. Runtime Profiles usually have names.
Runtime Technology:
The technology that is provided to enable an application to execute. This includes the instruction set or script language syntax, the definition of the virtual machine or instruction processor, and the APIs available to the application programmer.
