Java JDK or JRE or both are specifications?
Can anyone quote some relevant implementations?
The JDK (Java Developer Kit) and JRE (Java Runtime Environment) are (in part) both implementations of the Java Language Specification and The Java Virtual Machine Specification. JRE and JDK may or may not refer to the Sun JRE and Sun JDK depending on context. You can see this list of JVMs (Java Virtual Machines). There are also third-party java compilers, the most popular being ecj and gcj.
