<h2>OSGi Execution Environments</h2>

Execution environments (EEs) are symbolic representations of JREs (Java Runtime Environments). They are generic names and the system can then be configured to use a specific JRE to implement that generic execution environment. For instance, one can speak about JavaS-E6.0 as an execution environment.

Standard Execution Environments
The set of execution environments is extensible but the Eclipse IDE includes support for the environments set out in the OSGi R4 specification.  These are summarized in the table below from [http://wiki.eclipse.org/Execution_Environments] .
