Opera working on a new Javascript engine named Carakan for their browser
Javascript engines have become the talking points about the web browsers we use today.
Google launched their Chrome web browser with a super fast V8 Javascript Engine.
Mozilla is working on TraceMonkey for the Firefox web browser.
Apple has their SquirrelFish engine which is used in Safari.
Now, Opera has announced that they are working on a new generation Javascript engine named Carakan that would replace their existing engine Futhark.
Futhark was added to Opera Browser in version 9.5. Opera is currently working on their Opera 10 release. An alpha version is already available for download.
Opera say that the new Carakan engine would support a new register-based virtual machine and a nascent native code generator that leverages static type analysis.
