AluVM development roadmap, which include technical specifications, standards, reference implementation, language-specific wrappers, programming languagues and toolchain, is managed at .
AluVM implementation
The current version of reference AluVM implementation, written as Rust library, embeddable into specific runtime environments, is 0.3.
We are targeting 1.0 release until the end of the year. The release must cover the following functionality:
Instruction set arthitecture design
Reference implementation in Rust
Floating point operation implementation
Virtual machine and control flow implementation
Separation of code & data segment
Library management & packaging
Core cryptography implementation (digests, Secp256k1 operations)
LNPBP standards and specification writeup
Complete implementation of arithmetic operations for domain-specific floating types: BFloat16 (machine learning), IEEE binary256 and 512-tapered float (near-arbitrary precision float arithmetics)
Complete implementation of complex byte-string operations
Implement operations on Curve25519
Complete test coverage of the reference VM implementation
