ROSE

====

**ROSE** is a programming platform designed as a convinent low-level layer with some high-level features. Programs are represented as [modules](doc/module.md) with ROSE [bytecode](doc/instr.md).

ROSE **virtual machine** is a program runtime - basically, it is a bytecode interpreter. It loads, verifies and executes modules.

ROSE [assembler](doc/rasm.md) can be used for textual module representation, and **rasm** is an assembler translator.

Some ROSE features:

* it tries to be fast, small and extremely portable;

* code verification: no code can damage VM;

* modularity and late binding;

* garbage collector;

* unified interface for different tasks through extended filesystem.

Many ideas are derived from UNIX, Plan9 and JVM.
