Java Platform, Micro Edition or Java ME is a computing platform for development and deployment of portable code for embedded and mobile devices (micro-controllers, sensors, gateways, mobile phones, personal digital assistants, TV set-top boxes, printers).[1] Java ME was formerly known as Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition or J2ME.
The platform uses the object-oriented Java programming language, and is part of the Java software-platform family. It was designed by Sun Microsystems (now Oracle Corporation) and replaced a similar technology, PersonalJava.
In 2013, with more than 3 billion Java ME enabled mobile phones in the market,[2] the platform was in continued decline as smartphones have overtaken feature phones.[3]
