Bytecode Verification

AOT Compilation

Sandbox Allocation

Linear Memory Mapping

Statically validates instruction bounds, control flow integrity, and type safety prior to machine translation.

Optimizes native machine code directly targeting constrained instruction caches and register limits.

Enforces strict memory isolation boundaries and capability limits at compilation time.

Maps isolated address spaces directly to hardware pages with zero runtime virtualization overhead.

Safety Guarantees

Isolation and memory bounds enforced strictly at compilation rather than runtime.
