Virtual Machines are spreading from the desktop to other domains. Embedded Systems is a domain where the benefits of Virtual Machines such as portability or software-based isolation can be of much help. However, for highly dynamical, extensible systems we believe that the key features needed in a VM to succeed in the domain are flexibility and lightweightness, and that reflection and a VM reduced instruction set are the means to achieve this. In this paper we briefly describe two VMs built in our research group with the before mentioned properties that could be evolved for the embedded systems domain: The Carbayonia and the nitrO Abstract Machines.
