suoritusaikaympäristöjä

Suoritusaikaympäristö refers to the runtime environment in computer science where a program executes. It encompasses all the necessary components and conditions that allow a software application to run. This includes the operating system, which manages hardware resources, and any associated libraries or frameworks that the program relies on for its functionality. The suoritusaikaympäristö also involves the hardware itself, such as the processor, memory, and input/output devices.

Different programming languages and applications may require specific suoritusaikaympäristöjä. For instance, a Java application typically requires a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) to be present as part of its runtime environment. Similarly, .NET applications depend on the .NET Framework or .NET Core. The goal of a well-defined suoritusaikaympäristö is to provide a consistent and predictable platform for program execution, ensuring that the software behaves as intended across various machines, provided they have the compatible environment. This concept is crucial for software portability and deployment.
