JModelica.org features a C interface for efficient evaluation of model equations, the cost function and the constraints: the JModelica Model Interface (JMI). JMI also contains functions for evaluation of derivatives and sparsity and is intended to offer a convenient interface for integration of numerical algorithms.

In addition to the the C interface, model meta data can be exported in XML. In the future this feature is intended to be extended to include full model export in XML, which in turn enables use of XML techniques such as XPATH and XSLT.

JastAdd produces compilers encoded in pure Java. As a result, the JModelica.org compilers are easily embedded in other applications aspiring to support Modelica and Optimica. In particular, a Java API for accessing the flat model representation and an extensible template-based code generation framework is offered.

The JModelica.org compilers are developed using the compiler construction framework JastAdd. JastAdd features extensible compiler construction, both at the language level and at the implementation level. This feature is explored in JModelica.org where the Optimica compiler is implemented as a fully modular extension of the core Modelica compiler. The JModelica.org platform is a suitable choice for experimental language design and research.
