Jasmin is a Java Assembler Interface. It takes ASCII descriptions for Java classes, written in a simple assembler-like syntax and using the Java Virtual Machine instruction set. It converts them into binary Java class files suitable for loading into a Java interpreter. Jasmin was written as the companion to the book “Java Virtual Machine”, soon to be published by O’Reilly, written by Troy Downing and Jonathan Meyer.

Javaa
The Javaa Bytecode Assembler is a program that converts code written in “Java Assembly Language” into a valid Java .class file.
Jamaica
Jamaica, the JVM Macro Assembler, is an assembly language for JVM bytecode programming. It uses Java syntax to define a JVM class except for the method body that takes bytecode instructions, including Jamaica‘s built-in macros. In Jamaica, bytecode instructions use mnemonics and symbolic names for all variables, parameters, data fields, constants and labels. Jamaica is a simplified JVM assembly language. It does not support inner classes. Variables are all method-wide and are strongly-typed. Jamaica is a language facade for a Java class creation API, JavaClassCreator. This API closely mimics the Jamaica language, allows users to define a Java class with the same flow, and supports all the Jamaica instruction set and macros.

j80xx
j80xx is a universal pluggable i80xx assembler emulator/interpreter. It has open architecture so it can be easily extended to emulate any kind of processor..
Befunge Interpreter
Ok, call it obscure… At http://www.esolangs.org/wiki/Befunge we learn that “Befunge is believed to be the first two-dimensional, ASCII-based, general-purpose (in the sense of “you could plausibly write Hunt the Wumpus in it” [1]) programming language. Its form was influenced in part by the multimedia scripting application AmigaVision, and in part by Forth.” Here is the interpreter for it.

F# to JavaScript
The idea is to use the F# language for writing both client and server-side part of the web application, to develop client-side code in a type-safe programming language using a subset of the F# library, and to provide a way to write both server-side and client-side code as a part of single homogeneous module defining the web page logic. It includes a first translator from an ML-family functional language to JavaScript. The concept is described in the paper Tomáš Petříček Don Syme. AFAX: Rich client/server web applications in F#, there is a tutorial like introduction and there is some upcoming software.
